THE VISUAL SYSTEM
How the visual system works
The illustration system was built from motifs drawn directly from Gina's own writing — anchors, waves, candles, stars, leaves, and pathways. Each motif carries a defined meaning within the brand: anchors for stability, candles for hope, stars for guidance, waves for flow and emotional release.
Two complementary colour palettes govern the system. The defined brand palette — vivid reds, blues, yellows, leaf green, and gold — provides structure and clarity across UI elements, icons, and buttons. The watercolour palette — soft yellows, aqua blues, warm golds, and violet — provides atmosphere across backgrounds, illustrations, and marketing assets.
The result is a visual system that is both functional and emotionally resonant — structured enough to be consistent, warm enough to reflect the nature of the work.
