/ Brand identity

Backslash Creative

Identity for a creative studio, built in five parts: logo variations, colour, typography, pattern, and the brand in action. The pattern does most of the heavy lifting, because a studio brand shows up more often as a background than as a logo.

The problem

A creative studio's brand shows up as a background far more often than as a logo. What it needs is not just a good mark but something still recognisable at thumbnail size.

The work

Four colours, high contrast

A single warm red against a deep navy and near black, with an off white ground. Small palette on purpose: it forces the pattern and the type to carry the personality.

Pattern as the real identity

The pattern system extends the logo into surfaces where a mark would be too literal, and it is what makes a post recognisable at thumbnail size.
