Selected work (06)

Dürer, Saint Jerome in His Study, engraving, 1514
Albrecht Dürer, Saint Jerome in His Study, 1514

Dürer signed everything he made. Soon people asked for him by name.

Most painters of his time worked to order and left their work unsigned. Dürer put the same monogram on every print. Collectors began to look for it, and other printmakers copied it to sell their own work.

A signature is what lets people find you again. We work out what in your work is worth signing, and then we design it.

YouA moment ago

Your business should look like you.

First we find out what you stand for. Then we show you what it looks like.

One · What you stand for01 / 04

We start with you.

What you have made, what you believe about your field, and what people pay you for.

We cut what is not you.

An old offer, an audience you have outgrown, a description of yourself you stopped believing.

We shape the form.

Two or three directions, each with its reasons, and one clear recommendation. You will not get a menu of twenty logos.

We put it to work.

Your website, your shop or your publication, wherever people decide to buy from you.

What we make
  1. A

    Strategy

    What you stand for, who it is for, and the words that say it.

  2. B

    Identity

    Name, mark, type and colour, with the rules that keep them together.

  3. C

    Presence

    Your website, shop and publications, designed to look like one person.

Every project begins with The Study, a short and focused start before anything is designed.
