The Trust & Perception Gap

The Trust & Perception Gap

The Trust & Perception Gap

As a small, all-female handmade business in a crowded gifting market, The Loop Chapter needed more than a pretty aesthetic. Customers had to trust that a crochet flower was worth the price they were paying.

Without a cohesive brand identity (logo, tone, visual system), the product's quality wasn't translating into perceived value.


The Loop Chapter crafts keepsakes are slow-made, designed for people who enjoy craft and are eco-conscious.

The brand strategy was rooted in the idea of creating "loops" of slow and cosy habits, creating a warm atmosphere for the brand. It also tied into the crochet technique, while "chapter" brings in this idea of personal stories and volumes.

We branded this to feel like a warm hug, with tones of green to add to the eco-consciousness. It also represents the growth that comes from indulging in these habits for ourself. The soft pink also adds a calm feeling, combined with nurturing.

THE LOGO

A visual representation of what the brand stands for

The word “loop” is the heart of the design. The line going through the Os reflects the movement of the thread and the handmade feel of crocheting. Its fluid form adds a sense of warmth and creativity, hinting at the nature of the craft.

In contrast, the cleaner type used for “the” and “chapter” adds structure and consistency, helping frame the playful middle word. This contrast keeps the logo easy to read while still letting “loop” stand out with personality.

gardens, growth, and the organic imperfection of handmade things. The wavy line motifs echo the rhythm of crochet stitches — not rigid, not mechanical, but alive and flowing. The layered greens reference the stems, leaves, and natural depth you'd find in a real bouquet, grounding the brand in its botanical identity.

PACKAGING DESIGN

The packaging draws from the world the products already live in:
