A few snippets from a project I’ve been working on recently.
Knotty is a modern gift shop that focuses on warmth and connection. The goal was to balance a clean and geometric layout with deeply human elements.
The main goal was to create a versatile and scalable identity system that represents the concept of connection (symbolized by the ribbon and the "knot") without creating visual clutter.
Fellow designers and strategists, what do you think of this visual direction?
Thanks so much, Sahil! I spent a lot of time experimenting with different combinations to get that balance just right, so I’m thrilled to hear the palette resonated with you!
Two colorway directions for Valgrim Jewelry, a Norse-inspired hand-forged jewelry brand.
Same mark. Viking warrior with crossed hammers, “Forged in Norse Tradition.”
Option A: black on white. Raw, bold and graphic. Feels like it belongs on a forge.
Option B: deep burgundy on warm parchment. Aged and earthy. Feels like it belongs in a saga.
