_{The Hue emblem is inspired by ideas of multidimensionality, of layering materiality, texture, and form, as well as abstracting the science held in these products into art. The softness, and liquidity of the formulas is translated into the shape of an inverted water droplet, that itself can be abstracted into a face. The texture on the backside of the object is a reference to the effect of the water on rock over time, itself a metaphor for the effect of HUE products on skin. From rough to smooth, from porous to dense. The inside of the object is sculpted like a cavity, expanding the possibilities of the functionality of this object. Through exchanges and iterations between HUE and I, these ideas were sculpted into multiple shapes before arriving at its final form. The object is sculpted to be versatile, to be scaled up and down, to be abstracted into a pendant, an applicator, and other pieces of jewellery and functional objects.}
