Swirl & Bloom

BRAND DESIGN/VISUAL DESIGN

Project Overview

Swirl and Bloom is a frozen yogurt brand that turns indulgence into a mindful experience, serving creamy, plant-based swirls made from organic ingredients. With sustainability at its core, it blends delicious flavors with eco-friendly values, making every spoonful both guilt-free and full of joy. I created a brand and visual identity system that captures this spirit: fresh, playful, and vibrant, while showcasing Swirl and Bloom’s commitment to mindful, sustainable goodness in every scoop.

Logo and Mark

The Swirl and Bloom logo beautifully depicts the playful swirl of frozen yogurt in a traditional cone, topped with a leaf that represents its 100% vegan and sustainable origins. The gradient color palette symbolizes growth and renewal, illustrating a journey from the earth, nourished by the sun, and blossoming into something vibrant and full of life—represented by the leaves.

Design Element

The "Swirl" symbolizes the motion of yogurt as it is dispensed, beginning from the bottom and swirling up to the top, ultimately forming the distinctive peak. Similar to the logo, the swirl features a color gradient that represents the earth (deep orange), the sun (yellow), and a leaf for growth (green). It tells the story of its vegan influence, from the earth, through the sun, and finally the bloomming of a leaf.

Color Palette

The Swirl and Bloom color palette represents growth from the earth to the sun and the green of blooming leaves. This illustrates sustainable and mindful efforts.

Typeface Family

The Silka typeface family features a clean and unique design that is both versatile and approachable. With various styles and weights, it strikes the perfect balance between sophistication and playfulness, making it ideal for any project.
