We love the beach, and we love any opportunity to get really creative and build a brand from the ground up – so of course we had to work with emerging brand Laguna East, a beachwear company that specializes in custom, exclusive bathing suits, tops, bottoms, accessories, and beach necessities.

Laguna East’s Founder and CEO approached Made Possible Creative with a request to create a logo, launch a website, and kick off marketing campaigns before their grand opening. So we got to work.

While Laguna East is a New Jersey-based brand, it has national appeal. So, the brand’s aesthetic draws inspiration from the beautiful coasts of both California and New Jersey. We were asked to experiment with minimalist logos that incorporated sun rays, so we tried a few things:

And after some back-and-forth, we ended up with this: a minimalist, sun-kissed logo and selected a beachy color palette to match.

With content and style in place, we dove into website design and development, building an e-commerce store with BigCommerce.
