Objective
For this assignment, we met with the owner of R2 Apiary & Cut Flowers. She wanted a logo design that included a black background. She wanted her customers to think of both cut flowers and honey when seeing her logo. She liked the colors gold, silver, and white so I chose to also include those in my logo designs.
The Logo
For this design, I placed an actual photograph of a flower inside the R2 to capture the texture of the flower. The dashed line represents the circle of life that the bee and flower are part of.
Bee Design
I designed a specific bee to identify with the brand – whether it is in the logo or alone. I filled the bee wings with a honeycomb pattern that uses dark gray to create definition and flower shapes. The gold stripes on the body also have a flower pattern.
Other Logo Options
I provided these 3 other designs that were ultimately not chosen.
