Nooken

The project is taking part in the competition

«IZBA» is a store for clothing and accessories specifically designed for gingerbread houses.

In today’s world, there are countless clothing stores targeting vastly different demographics. However, there are still no stores for traditional Russian «izbas» (cottages on stork’s legs). They have nowhere to buy new clothes, yet there is a strong desire to keep up with fashion and try out different looks. The «IZBA» project solves this problem.

REBRANDING

ChatGPT 6.1 was used for the rebranding.

«Nooken» — a home goods store offering tableware, textiles, lighting, and decor. It features items for everyday living that help you furnish your space and make it feel cozy.

concept:

The core concept centers on home textiles: linen tablecloths, lace napkins, and curtains. Their textures and patterns form the foundation of the brand identity. The interplay of threads, delicate ornamentation, and openwork edges are repeated throughout the graphics, packaging, and store design, evoking the feeling of a well-loved home.

IDENTITY

Title:

Original size 2172x724

Prompt:
Suggest a short, memorable, invented English name for a homeware store selling textiles, tableware, lighting, and decor. The concept is inspired by linen, lace, and the comfort of home. The name should sound soft and elegant, be easy to pronounce, and work well in a calligraphic logo.

logo:

Original size 2172x724

Prompt:
Create an elegant logo for the homeware brand «Nooken»: an ornamental N/O monogram. Use a flourished capital N, flowing italic lettering, and contrasting thick and thin strokes. Merge intersecting monogram strokes without dividing lines. Pure white artwork on a transparent background, crisp vector-like edges. No connecting strokes between the symbol and name, stars, textures, shadows, gradients, or extra text.

Typography:

Using the «What the Font» service, the Murisa Celine Italic font was identified as being used for the logo and all subsequent brand identity.

colors:
