Brand Identity
NORTHERN GARDENS
Northern Gardens has been operating in Cody, Wyoming for over 30 years. When a young couple bought the business a few years ago, they wanted a fresh look that appealed to their fellow millennials while honoring the heritage brand that was now in their hands.
We worked on a Brand Identity package to create a new look that felt grounded and place-based, familiar to locals and inviting to newcomers. Decades ago, Northern Gardens’ logos had included an Indian Paintbrush, the state flower of Wyoming. I designed a new logo around this fiery little flower–Its bold color and instantly recognizable shape made it a perfect throughline for the brand’s many specific needs, from signage and truck wraps to hats and stickers to social media. It offers a nod to the legacy of the business, and conveys a deep understanding of the unique plants and growing conditions of Wyoming.
