Innisfree has unveiled its new logo. We launched a new brand slogan, ‘Effective, Nature-Powered Skincare Discovered from the island.’ It is said that by mixing uppercase and lowercase letters of the alphabet, it contains an energetic and confident image and the value of respecting beauty. I recognize it as InnISFree, but the height of all letters is unified, which causes cognitive dissonance. I appears excessively small compared to n, S protrudes up and down from the center, and ree grows suddenly. Innisfree is based on Yeats’ poem “The […] ]

Snaebit is a combination of the words snake and rabbit, and it creates cute yet solid graphic designs centered on attractive illustrations using characters. Using the Najeonchilgi illustrations, […]
