At Duelle Made, we recognized the unique qualities that set Melanie Hay Design apart from other interior design firms.

What Sets It Apart
The Journey
The foundation for Melanie Hay Design's brand was carefully crafted to capture the essence of her unique design approach and create an immersive online experience.
The primary logo serves as a visual representation of Melanie's design philosophy. It features a timeless serif typeface with unexpected customizations, mirroring the intentional layers within her work. The logo exudes elegance and sophistication, reflecting Melanie's attention to detail and commitment to creating spaces that are both beautiful and functional.
The colour palette reflects the natural textures and earth tones found in Melanie's work. The rich and sophisticated hues evoke emotions of warmth, comfort, and security – the very feelings that her target audience seeks in their living spaces.
Typography plays a crucial role in establishing the brand's authentic and timeless appeal. The combination of serif and sans-serif fonts creates a harmonious balance between tradition and modernity, mirroring the versatility and flexibility of Melanie's design approach. The serif heading exudes a sense of authority, trust, and sophistication, while the sans-serif body copy adds a touch of modernity and cleanliness. This typographic blend allows the brand to effortlessly transition between traditional and contemporary styles, resonating with a diverse range of clients.
