Kia ora! Ko Jaymie tōku ingoa

I am currently studying a bachelor of visual communication (graphic design) at Wintec in Kirikiriroa.

I wanted to share my mahi from an assignment where we had to come up with a name and create a logo for a hypothetical cafe that would be open during Matariki and inspired by Matariki.

I researched and came up with the name Hana to reflect the glow of the Matariki star cluster and the warmth/radiance of the cafe. I designed this logo to look like an eye to reflect one of the meanings behind the name Matariki, “eyes of god”.

Throughout this project I researched Matariki and felt very proud of my outcome and proud to be Māori.

Ngā mihi,

Jaymie
