The ask

An expressive mark that had to survive colour, background and available space changing.

What shipped

A twelve artboard identity family.

Shakti Shanti Studio wanted an identity as expressive as the practice itself. The mark joins a mandala, a butterfly and an infinity loop, and it holds up in full color or a single ink.

The logos look amazing! I appreciate you understanding my vision.

The standalone symbol

01

Three ideas, one symbol.

The butterfly’s wings form an infinity loop, set inside a mandala of petals and vines. The symbol can stand alone wherever the name does not fit.

The lockup across its color versions

02

A palette with range.

Burgundy, gold, yellow and a burgundy to magenta gradient give the studio warm and bright options. Each background gets its own tuned color version.

White on black and single-ink symbols

03

Still itself in one color.

White on black and single-ink versions keep every line of the mandala intact, ready for embroidery, stamps and small print.

Up close

Drawn to hold at every size.
