Logo Design Brief

We are rebranding Nirvana as a specialized email marketing agency for ecommerce brands, with a focus on conscious / eco‑friendly brands. The eco angle does not need to be explicit in the logo. Priority is a sophisticated, high‑end, minimal identity that feels credible and premium.

Our current site:
https://www.getnirvana.com/
Our new site will use this theme:
https://borgholm.qodeinteractive.com/creative-agency/
We would like to see the new logo mocked up on key areas of that theme (nav bar, hero, footer, mobile) so we can judge how it feels in context.

Design Goals
- Minimal, refined, and elevated.
- Feels like a boutique, high‑end agency.
- Clean typography; strong sense of spacing and proportion.
- Primary use will be digital (website, pitch decks, email, LinkedIn).
- Usage / Format Requirements
- Primary usage is a horizontal lockup in the website header.
- The logo should not be tall or “stacked.” Favor a wide, compact form that sits comfortably in a nav bar.
- Icon could be something symbolizing email or growth or love or similar

Please Provide:
- Primary horizontal logo.
- Optional secondary / simplified mark or monogram (for favicon, social avatar).
- Light and dark versions that work on both white and dark backgrounds.

Creative Direction
- “NIRVANA” as the primary wordmark.
- “FOR ECOMMERCE” as the strapline.
- “Stop spending. Start earning.” could also be explored as a tagline.

Style Cues:
- Sophisticated, restrained, modern, minimalist, and confident.
- We really like the style of the theme we’re using, https://borgholm.qodeinteractive.com/creative-agency/, which can be described as Architectural Minimalism with an Editorial Feel.
* Strong, Asymmetrical Grid: A rigid underlying grid with dynamic, often asymmetrical arrangements, providing structure without boredom and adding creative energy.
* Art-Directed, Conceptual Imagery: High-quality, often abstract visuals that feel curated and gallery-worthy, signaling a taste-driven, high-level creative approach.

Would love to see mockups of the strongest 2–3 options applied to:
- Website header and hero section on the Borgholm theme.
- One inner page header.
- Mobile navigation.
