Madam Bakery

by Yana Volguzheva

When I look back at my early projects, I always get hit by a gentle wave of nostalgia. Back in 2018, when I was just starting my journey as a designer, I was asked to create cookie packaging, a flyer with various flavors, and a logo for a small business called Madam Bakery. At the time, it seemed incredibly cool and stylish to me. Now, 6 years later, I clearly see plenty of details I would approach differently. But I'm sharing this project not to showcase "perfect design," but to preserve an essential part of my personal history. Yes, this project might seem imperfect and slightly naive today, but my entire path started precisely from works like these. Every detail, every creative choice felt like a step forward back then. It’s important to me that these memories don't simply gather dust on a hard drive, but live here instead. Because our earliest works deserve just as much attention as our most recent projects. They remind us of where we started and how far we've come. And yes, years later, I would do things differently but the value of that experience stays with me forever ❤️
