QUERQUE CANDLES

Client: Querque Candles

Role: Product Consultant / Designer

Timeline: 4 weeks

Overview

Querque Candles needed a versatile brand identity for both product packaging and online marketing. I designed a custom logo, color palette, and visual elements optimized for sticker printing, social media, and a future Shopify store, ensuring a cohesive and professional brand presence.

The Challenge:

Querque Candles needed a distinct brand identity to establish a recognizable presence across product packaging, online marketing, and a future Shopify store. Without a cohesive visual identity, creating branded stickers for candles, launching an online store, and promoting the business effectively was a challenge.

The Solution:

I designed a cohesive brand identity, including a custom logo, color palette, and visual elements, tailored for both product packaging and digital use. The design was optimized for sticker printing, online marketing, and future website integration, ensuring a consistent and professional look across all touchpoints.

Balancing design work with client management was a challenge. Navigating proposals, payments, and timelines highlighted the importance of clear expectations and firm contracts.

Shopify Insights
