The brief
§01 / Brief
Aashirwad Ayurveda is a unit of AVP Ayurveda, one of the most respected names in classical Ayurvedic practice. It needed a master brand to span its full range - pharmaceutical-grade Kashayam and Choornam, modern health products, fumigative agents, corporate documents, and a premium cosmetics line, ORA. The challenge: hold the depth of the tradition while reading as contemporary trust on every shelf.
The relationship
§02 / Relationship
An identity-first engagement that grew to cover the full breadth of the company's output: master mark and symbol system, product packaging across the pharmaceutical and FMCG range, print advertising, staff ID and lanyard, corporate share certificate, and the ORA sub-brand - a standalone premium cosmetics marque sharing the Aashirwad heritage mark at its base.
The mark
A mark drawn from the Tridosha.
Three leaves for three doshas. Overlapping mandalas for the flower of life. Five-unit spacing for five elements and five senses. The Aashirwad mark is a symbol system built from Ayurvedic doctrine - every proportion carries a rationale that exists independently of visual preference.
- 01
Three leaves
Vata, Pitta, and Kapha - the three universal life forces. Unequal proportions reflect the natural variation in the doshas: no two individuals hold the same balance.
- 02
Overlapping mandalas
The flower of life - a geometry of infinite cycles and creation, a structure found across traditions as the symbol of universal continuity.
- 03
Five-unit spacing
The five senses and five elements - Space, Air, Fire, Water, Earth - the elemental system that underlies all Ayurvedic diagnosis and treatment.
- 04
Deep navy blue
Emotional healing, inner peace, and meditative calm. A deliberate departure from the red-and-green convention of Indian pharmacy branding.
The work, in parts
§03 / Scope of engagement
01
The Tridosha mark
Three leaves for Vata, Pitta, and Kapha - drawn unequal to reflect natural variation. Overlapping mandalas at the centre for the flower of life. Five-unit spacing references five senses and five elements.
02
Palette - clinical calm
Deep navy against pale grounds - clinical trust without pharmaceutical coldness. Every product from Sambrani cups to Kashayam syrup holds the same calm authority.
03
ORA - the sub-brand
A stand-alone premium cosmetics marque - wordmark-led, positioned around 'the art of cosmetics.' The Aashirwad tridosha seal at the base of each ORA pack. Two brands, one source.
