Lauren met with Ash and instantly connected on the importance to build a brand that inspires curiosity but also completely embodies everything that Ash is. Ash and Lauren aligned and throughout the initial conversations were able to start dreaming of the overall look and feel of Wone Consulting.
Lauren met with Ash to learn more about the story behind Wone Consulting and some of the key values that Ash holds in her business. Lauren wanted to create a brand reflective of Wone Consulting and their level of expertise, sustainability, curiosity, respectfulness, advocacy, strategic thinking and healing.
Through exploring branding colours, Ash shared her inspiration from Country and the different landscapes across this country. Lauren developed a colour palette including blues, greens, beige and earthy browns to connect Wone Consulting to Country.
