The “Te Lo Juro!” brand began as a reflection of my personal experiences as a first-generation Mexican-American woman. The phrase “Te Lo Juro!” translates to “I swear!” in Spanish, something I frequently exclaimed at the end of my dramatic re-telling of stories as a child. My goal with Te Lo Juro! was to share with the world the same colorful and whimsical feeling I had growing up. After researching competing Latinx-inspired brands, I found that their designs lacked sincerity and creativity. I set out to create a brand that challenged that.
RESULTS
Since its initial conception in Spring 2020, the “Te Lo Juro!” brand a lot. It was difficult finding a balance between my personal stories and creating something relatable that could be enjoyed by many. Overall, I believe the final designs did just that. Building the brand was a great experience and I had a lot of fun doing it. I managed to create a whole universe of possibilities and I look forward to continuing this project beyond graduation.
