HOMEY CANDLE
Homey is a brand developed over four months with guidance from Professor Rebecca Bagley. This semester-long project was inspired by my love for downtime and relaxation. At Professor Bagley’s suggestion, I explored the Danish concept of “Hygge”, which became the foundation for Homey.

DESIGN PROCESS
Everyone has their own method for brainstorming a project. For me, I prefer two main approaches: using Procreate (you can find examples of my design process throughout this portfolio) and sketching ideas in my “Little Black Book.” True to its name, it's a small black notebook with dotted pages—perfect for organizing all kinds of brainstorming thoughts.
In the image to the left, you can see my thought process for designing Homey Candles. When I use my Little Black Book (LBB), I usually start with a central illustration and then jot down whatever comes to mind—because there’s a lot to explore. But as you can see, I had a clear vision in mind for this particular candle concept!
