Week 4.2
A friend of mine has enjoyed jewelry making for as long as I've known her. Recently, she's gotten into fashion design, too, and has been talking about possibly opening an online shop to sell her creations. And since she knows I'm a designer, she asked me to make a logo for her last summer.
"Nachtstern" is the name she chose. Purple was the color I chose, though that decision was based heavily on my friend's color preferences. I didn't want to pull a color out of the air and end up with one she hated, and since I knew purple was one of her favorite colors, I used it. It helped that cool colors emphasized the name a little, since it means "night star." The fact that her specialty lies in making jewelry is what prompted the necklace idea. The star pendant was also taken from the name Nachtstern.
I had a few more ideas than just this that I showed her, of course, but this one was the best, in my opinion. And judging by the positive reaction she had to it, it was a success.
