Mel Mol Power – Brand Refresh
Mel Mol Power is a Guatemalan blog and personal brand focused on motherhood, family life, and emotional well-being. Formerly known as MotherPower, the platform needed a fresh and modern identity to reflect the personal growth of its founder and the evolving voice of her community.
Creative Process
Discovery & Research
The project started with a deep conversation with the client to understand her new direction. Formerly "MotherPower", the blog was shifting from a general motherhood focus to something more personal and empowering, tied to her own identity as Melisa.
We discussed:
The shift from informational blog to personal brand
The tone and values: warmth, honesty, empowerment, family
Her audience: mostly mothers, women, and caregivers seeking real-life inspiration
I then explored branding trends in similar niches (motherhood blogs, wellness influencers, personal brands) and identified opportunities for authenticity and uniqueness.
Ideation & Sketching
With the new name Mel Mol Power in hand, I began sketching logo concepts that balanced:
Personal identity (her name)
Energy & dynamism
Softness to reflect her nurturing side
I explored:
Lettermark and wordmark options
Friendly yet bold typography
Icons related to voice, empowerment, and motherhood
Design & Refinement
I moved to digital explorations using Adobe Illustrator, testing multiple compositions, color palettes, and type combinations. The final design:
Uses rounded, approachable letterforms
Features a vibrant, modern color scheme (to stand out and radiate positivity)
Has a layout that adapts well across social media and blog headers
I presented 3 refined options, and the chosen design was further polished based on Melisa’s feedback.
