Wang & Wong Wedding Invitation

“This letterpressed wedding invitation visually blends the couple’s eastern descent and upbringing with their westernized lifestyle. The design was informed by the proportions of the chinese character 王, which stands for both of their last names (Wang and Wong). While Wang (王) is the pinyin romanization of the Chinese surnames 王, Wong (王) is the Cantonese romanization of that same chinese character. The visual quality and structural proportions of the couple’s chinese last name informed the design of this wedding invitation. A customized typeface was initially created based on the chinese character and later applied to create a typographic pattern (used on the coaster) that captured the sought after eastern-western essence. This pattern inspire a series of pattern that could be applied to other parts of the invitation design system. The pattern on the rsvp card hinted at checkboxes while the ‘words of wisdom’ coaster played off of the graphic representation of ‘hugs and kisses’ (xo) and the invitation and direction cards used and/or deconstructed the chinese character itself. The invitation, direction, rsvp, and thank you cards were letterpresses using metallic grey ink on 110# uncoated Lettra paper and the coasters were letterpressed on #220 uncoated Lettra paper.”

Oak Long Bar + Kitchen

“This stationery set was designed for Oak Long Bar + Kitchen in the heart of Copley Square in Boston. We developed a visual identity with typography and illustration inspired by European tarot cards and ivy league pledge paddles. The illustrations include intricate filigree patterns with small references to oak leaves and acorns. Special attention was paid to the quality of materials used: we had wax seal stickers produced and utilized matte foil stamping on architectural blotter paper to achieve the textures we wanted throughout the system.”

Wallspace

“With an existing business specialising in anti-graffiti and urban maintenance services, this client came to us for ideas to help launch a new ‘wall wrapping’ product that can be applied to almost any surface. From the outset, we wanted to create a name and brand language that was indicative of the product itself together with the environment it was designed to be used in.

After careful consideration and exstensive research (and wrap-based names), it was decided thatWallspace® ticked all the boxes. The name was flexible enough that we could couple the suffix ‘space’ with a variety of key adjectives to describe both the product and the service offering.The isometric grid based logo and pattern allowed us to demonstrate the potentially colourful and versatile nature of the material and gave us the perfect medium through which to communicate brand messages and personality.”

Turnstile

“David Wills, artist and creator of Turnstile, wanted to develop his identity across stationery elements and a website. His logo plays with positive and negative space suggesting his street based photographic practice. The often playful, nostalgic, and escapist nature of his work is highlighted through flipping his logo, striped pattern, and token shaped business card. The large full bleed images on his website bring attention to the unwanted, insignificant and unloved subject matter of his work.”
