The new brand needed to feel optimistic, calm, and supportive, providing a sense of safety and care for patients seeking mental health treatment.
Project Title: Brand Redesign
Client: Keta Medical Center
Date: March 2024
My Role
As the freelance designer for From Now On Studio, I led the brand development for this NY based Ketamine Clinic. I guided the entire rebranding process, from initial concept to final implementation. This included developing the visual identity, crafting a comprehensive brand guide, and designing versatile marketing materials. My focus was on creating a brand that connected emotionally with patients while maintaining professionalism in the healthcare space.

Conducted client interviews and competitor analysis to identify the need for a welcoming and inclusive brand.
Determined that the target audience sought both advanced treatment and a sense of safety and optimism.

Analyzed the existing logo featuring a silhouette of a head with leaves and expanded on the leaf motif for a more modern and natural symbol.
Developed a calming color palette, transitioning from green and purple to soft blues with hints of yellow and apricot to evoke a serene and hopeful tone.

Finalized the logo to embrace the leaf motif, representing healing and growth while maintaining a clean and sophisticated look.
Selected typography that balances professionalism with readability to enhance approachability.
Created a repeat pattern from the leaf motif, adaptable for digital platforms, printed materials, and merchandise.
