“Assignment To create a meaningful and visually compelling personal logo for Rohan Gene Polet, a newborn whose name means "ascending."”
Assignment To create a meaningful and visually compelling personal logo for Rohan Gene Polet, a newborn whose name means "ascending." The logo needed to capture the spirit of growth, movement, and the significance of his name in a timeless and symbolic form. Approach The creative process began with exploring the letters in Rohan’s name to uncover forms that could represent upward motion and balance. A circular structure was developed, integrating all the letters of his name into a unified symbol. The standout feature: the letter "A" was designed to extend upward into an arrow, echoing the meaning of "ascending." The final mark strikes a balance between symmetry and movement, rooted in classic design principles with a modern, minimalist execution. Results The final logo is a refined, custom monogram that feels both personal and universal. It was accompanied by a birth announcement featuring circular, glimmering forms in the background, reinforcing the theme of harmony, energy, and forward momentum. Together, the logo and announcement create a lasting, meaningful identity that honors Rohan’s name and story from day one.
