modern & strategic branding for a naturopathic and holistic health clinic based in Eugene oregon

Alive Integrative Medicine is a clinic based in Eugene, Oregon that offers supportive healthcare through various different modalities for an individualized journey. We wanted to position them as trustworthy, welcoming, inclusive and open-minded professional practitioners.

about the business

  • To create a professional and welcoming feeling
  • To establish consistency and build trust
  • A clean and modern feel with elements of nature

the branding

A feeling captured in a simple geometric form - the “aliveness” of the sun reaching outward, a new day, an expansive horizon. The feeling of a bright and promising tomorrow, infinite possibilities, and longevity. Just as we can trust that the sun will rise and give us life, we can trust Alive Integrative Medicine to support our health along the journey.

the logo

With this color palette there is a balance between modern and earthy. While the faded blues help create trust they are unique in their tone, helping them stand out. 
The greens portray their connection to nature as naturopaths and holistic providers, aligning their visuals to their messaging.

the colors

The goal of this website was to provide the client's patients an accessible and easy to navigate place to learn about services & practitioners, schedule appointments, access important information and learn from the blog. 
It has a clean, modern and welcoming feel just like their clinic - so the energy is consistent all the way through.

illustrative & SPIRITUAL, strategic branding for an intentional relationship guide based in tucson, arizona

Lily's Guidance is a personal brand centered around a relationship coach, yoga instructor and connection guide. She wanted a brand identity that left her flexibility to grow while also encapsulating her feminine, spiritual and unique energy.

about the business

  • To use a detailed and artistic style to help set her apart from other coaches
  • A vibe that helps attract the right people
  • To create a warm and welcoming feel 

the branding

This color palette is inspired by the desert sunset - a warm, inspiring and bold yet inviting feel.
The bright orange and yellow give the welcoming energy, while the purples create a bold yet feminine feel. The neutral tones balance them all out with some background or text options with contrast. 

the colors

the logo

The client specifically knew she wanted a detailed lotus flower - so my goal was to take something that has been done as a logo many times and make it unique, modern, and stand out from your traditional “spiritual” logos. This was a logo that started out as an illustration to give it more of an artistic touch - and the organic flower with the geometric border is a symbolic balance between the masculine and feminine that present themselves in many relationships. 
The goal of this website was to give the client a simple place where people could access and sign up for her services, read her blog, and sign up for her newsletter. Building a community is her main objective, so having an online connection space outside of social media was an important tool for her.

dETAILED, mystical & strategic branding for a PSYCHIC COACH BASED IN SEDONA, arizona

44 Times is a personal brand by a psychic coach and energy healer. She was starting her own practice and wanted her values of fun, inspiration, magic and courage to shine through. She works in a highly competitive market so she needed a brand identity that was authentic and stood out. 

about the business

  • To create a magical, fun and inspiring feel
  • To infuse the logos and elements with unique symbolism
  • To create something detailed and illustrative yet still functional

the branding

The client was clear she wanted a teal with a bold magenta, so we found the right hues and expanded on them. The combination of all of these colors gives a mystical, cosmic and fun energy which is aligned with her brand values. The light silver and dark blue help give higher contrast options when needed. 

the colors

Mystical, symbolic and authentically one-of-a-kind - this logo was inspired by the clients personal symbolic connection to the raven. The brand elements are included in the center of the raven for an added touch of brand consistency and fun. The third eye for intuition, the moon for shadow work/ inner self, the stars for celestial connection, and modern typography to help her stand out. 

the logo

The goal of this website was to help her local business in Sedona be found and stand out amongst a sea of others in her industry, to tell her story in a fun way and share her many services for her clients to learn about and sign up for. As a psychic and energy healer, she wanted her energy to be translated through her online portal so new clients had a unique experience from the moment the customer journey began.

brand identity | web design | print collateral

Root Resonance Integrative Medicine is a personal brand by a Chinese Medicine Doctor and Health Coach. He came to me needing a rebrand as he entered a new chapter with his business, where he was wanting to convey a new sense of professionalism for all of his services and to stand out in a new town. 

about the business

  • To create a warm, grounded, and welcoming feeling, calm but awake, natural and simple
  • A pinecone as a symbol representing the meaning behind "root resonance"
  • To come across as professional yet authentic

the branding

The client wanted a warm and grounded feel that also gave a sense of compassion and trustworthiness. The browns and yellows are in line with the pinecone's natural hues while intentionally conveying groundedness. The blues represent the sky or a sense of expansiveness while also communicating the sense of trust.  

the colors

A straightforward pinecone design that can be very versatile for many different placements - shown as a full logo, just the linework or using the negative space while still being recognizable. The dots emphasize the energy resonating from the center or the "root" while also being a play on acupuncture/ meridian points.

the logo

The goal of this website was to connect the client to new patients through optimized SEO, share information about all of his services, build his newsletter and podcast, and give patients info to book an appointment. It has a welcoming, grounded and warm feel as an extension of his practice giving customers a consistent journey from the beginning.

design & marketing projects for a taqueria in eugene, oregon

Web design | social media management | photography | merch & print collateral | mural creation | logo design

Pandita is a family owned restaurant in Eugene that hired me to help them with all things creative. Their main logo was already created so my job was to expand, refine and continue their branding. I help them with content creation for social media, merch, web design, photography, marketing, mural creation and print collateral.

about the business

We keep a vintage, warm feel with all of their photos by using similar color grading and grain throughout the page. I create graphics inspired by vintage jam band posters for their events as their restaurant features art of this style, and we create fun reels highlighting their specials, staff and customers.

Our goal with social media was to connect new, local customers to them, tell their story, share their specials and build their community. Once a month we meet up, take photos of specials and menu favorites, take videos and edit reels. All posts get scheduled for the month on this day as well, so they have the piece of mind knowing their online presence is consistent.

the direction of your business depends on how people perceive it

that's why hiring a designer who is aligned with your vision is so important

lets make magic

"From the moment I started working with Sammi I knew that she was invested and genuinely took her time in hearing about my vision. I explained my business name 'sun and moon counseling' and described the balance and duality between light and dark in life. I then trusted her to have full creative rein over what her mind visualized and came up with from my words. To say I was in awe of the final product is an understatement. The design she produced was unique, bold, and modern. I have been complimented time and time again from client's who say they chose to work with me because they connected with my brand design. Since then I have hired Sammi to design my business card, letterhead, and anything I can think of because I know she will do it with attention to detail and her creative expertise. I am forever grateful for her love and care that she commits to her projects that ultimately brought my brand to life and made it what it is today."
