MM One, the brand system

The identity for this studio: four marks, a color system, a kit of parts and a guide anyone can read.

What it was for

A studio of one still has to look like a studio. I wanted a mark drawn from numbers, a color system that says which shade does which job, and a guide short enough to use.

What I made

  • Four logo marks in four versions each, with a separate cut for small sizes
  • Six colors, each with a full range from light to dark, and about thirty named roles
  • A kit of more than sixty glyphs, patterns and layout pieces
  • A guide of eleven chapters, and the styles this site runs on
