We’re excited to share our latest design project: a commemorative ref magnet series for the renowned Kamay Ni Hesus Healing Church in Lucban, Quezon.
This project allowed us to explore various visual directions, translating the spiritual and architectural grandeur of the shrine into a compact, memorable souvenir.
We developed three unique versions, each capturing a different atmosphere and set of landmarks found at the site. Take a look below as we unveil Version 1, Version 2, and Version 3 of the Kamay Ni Hesus Ref Magnet design.
Kamay Ni Hesus Ref Magnet Design: Version 1
Atmosphere: Divine and Dramatic
Version 1 was designed to maximize emotional impact. This design centers entirely on the iconic Risen Christ statue, using dramatic, high-contrast lighting reminiscent of a sunset or divine revelation.
- Visual Focus: The full figure of the statue is framed against a vibrant, dynamically clouded sky, amplified by a strong sunburst effect.
- Aesthetic Choice: We utilized a warm palette of reds, oranges, and deep shadows to create an intense, reverent mood.
- Branding: The “Kamay ni Hesus” text is large, stylized, and set in warm colors, ensuring maximum visibility against the busy backdrop. This version prioritizes visual power and spiritual connection.
Kamay Ni Hesus Ref Magnet Design: Version 2
Atmosphere: Exploratory and Natural
Version 2 shifts the focus to the site’s role as a tourist and pilgrimage destination, showcasing more of the landscape and other structures in a bright, inviting light.
- Visual Focus: The composition is split, featuring a partial, close-up view of the Risen Christ statue on the left and the Noah’s Ark structure on the right, surrounded by lush greenery and a clear blue sky.
- Aesthetic Choice: The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the daytime beauty of the site. The color palette is cooler, highlighting greens and blues.
- Branding: A distinct “Explore” graphic element was introduced on the lower corner, underscoring the site’s appeal to visitors and travelers. The primary text “Kamay ni Hesus” is set in clean white, creating a modern, bold contrast.
Kamay Ni Hesus Ref Magnet Design: Version 3
Atmosphere: Comprehensive and Architectural
Version 3 serves as the most visually detailed summary of the complex, ensuring key landmarks are included in one cohesive photograph.
- Visual Focus: This layout successfully integrates the Risen Christ statue, the Noah’s Ark structure, and the distinct Church/Chapel building with its recognizable steeple. A small photo element detailing the “Garden of…” figures is also included to hint at the site’s walking trails.
- Aesthetic Choice: The image is crisp and vivid, balancing the architectural red tones of the church with the saturated blues of the sky and the greens of the foliage.
- Branding: The main title is presented in a bold blue and white scheme, giving it a professional and clean appearance against the multiple background elements. This version is designed for visitors who want a complete visual reminder of everything they saw.
Conclusion
This collection showcases how composition, color grading, and focus can drastically alter the final product, even when working with the same subject matter.
Whether featuring the dramatic, backlit heroism of the Risen Christ in Version 1, the sunny, travel-friendly feel of Version 2, or the comprehensive architectural summary in Version 3, our goal was to provide a visually compelling and authentic souvenir for visitors. We are proud of the versatility and impact achieved across this three-part series.
