CONTEXTE AND INTENT
Nolani was born from a rare vision: that of a hair care product that makes no concessions to either effectiveness or sensitivity. At the intersection of science, gesture, and intuition, the brand explores a beauty that is chosen, cultivated, and respected.
The intention behind the visual identity was clear: to convey a quiet sophistication, a form of silent power that emanates from both rigor and attentiveness. A brand designed for those who see care as an art of connecting oneself, one's body, and one's life.
CREATIVE APPROCHE AND VISUAL DIRECTION
The artistic direction was designed to embody the promise of care rooted in mastery, yet resolutely fluid. A premium brand, without ostentation. A textured, intellectual, and intuitive aesthetic.
The logo, in slender serif letters, expresses this tension between verticality and movement. Each letter, stable and clear, carries within it the discreet strength of refined craftsmanship. No unnecessary ornamentation: an assertive sobriety, a dense presence. The color palette explores deep mineral and earthy hues, while evoking organic matter and the warmth of life, while maintaining an almost architectural, thoughtful, and structured dimension.
The packaging was designed as edited objects. Clean lines, chiseled typography, and a play of matte/glossy contrasts. The product experience begins as soon as you pick it up: tactile, balanced, and visually masterful.
