Added a new case study! This was such a fun project: a rebrand for a local cookie company.
Our goal was to transform the brand into something that felt like an everyday celebration through bold typography, playful details, and a fresh visual identity.

BRAYD: The Braided Focus Flame π₯
BRAYD is an original mascot created for BURN THE TASK, a fictional productivity ritual brand built around focus, completion, and quiet discipline.
Rather than designing a cute candle character, I built a full mascot system around one clear visual behavior: focused time burns into completion. BRAYD is a braided wick core inside a faceted wax body. As a task progresses, the wick burns down, the wax form changes through clear stages, and the final braided strand becomes a checkmark.
The mascot was designed to stay recognizable across every touchpoint, from the custom wordmark and hero poster to the sticker system, focus ritual packaging, burn sequence, and consistency board. Every asset uses the same visual DNA: the same braided wick, the same faceted wax body, the same angular flame, and the same final checkmark.
This project explores how a single mascot can become the face of a fictional productivity world by turning an abstract idea, focus, into a visual ritual.
Character Brief
Name: BRAYD
Role: The Braided Focus Flame
Personality: quiet, intense, disciplined, stubborn, focused, and encouraging without being soft.
BRAYD does not rush you and does not distract you. He simply burns with you until the task is done. His braided wick represents focused effort, his faceted wax body represents pressure and progress, and his final checkmark represents completion earned through attention.

Same wick. Same facets. Same flame. Same final checkmark.

Thats clever and well designed.
RORO is a small axolotl-like creature born in the underground world β curious, fearless, and always searching for what lies beyond the next doorway.
Armed with a lantern and endless wonder, RORO travels between dimensions without ever losing itself. That's the whole point.
This is the mascot for RORO β an imaginary t-shirt brand built around one character and infinite worlds.
THE CHARACTER RORO is slate blue with coral-red feathery gills and dark sharp spikes. Slightly mysterious. Slightly mischievous. Completely unafraid. The kind of character you'd recognize on a poster, a sticker, a packaging label, or a tiny thumbnail β and know immediately who it is.
TWO SERIES RORO BRAND:
1. WORLDS β each print places RORO inside a different dimension: ocean depths, crystal caves, alien landscapes, surrealist architecture. The world changes. The character never does.
2. RORO STATES β each print captures RORO mid-adventure: steampunk biker, monster fighter, underground cartographer, volcanic onsen dreamer. One character. Infinite sides.
Together the two series create a brand universe that can expand forever without losing coherence.
Every world has a story.
