French term

légèrement revisité

French to English Marketing Marketing
La feuille est celle d’un peuplier légèrement revisité.

This is a sentence from a text describing the new logo of a company. I understand that it is showing the leaf of a poplar tree but what does it mean when it says the leaf is "légèrement revisité"

Any help would be most appreciated!

it actually seems to be the poplar that is "légèrement revisité"

Perhaps stylised rather than totally realistic?

agree rkillings : Stick with "revisited"-- all the rage in design. Of course the logo was redesigned, but the adj. alludes to the rethinking, reinterpreting.

The leaf is based on that of a poplar tree

Yet another take!
