MARKS & FORMS — a journey in marks, forms, and recognition.
What started in 2025 with the first edition of MARKS & FORMS has grown into an ongoing exploration of identity, symbolism, and visual systems.
From its first launch and first feature, through every new edition and recognition along the way, the collection has continued to evolve — becoming not only a personal archive of work, but a visual record of how my approach to identity design keeps moving forward.
Now, in the 2026 edition, MARKS & FORMS has reached another milestone: its latest feature, bringing the collection to what I believe is its 9th badge of recognition.
Nine moments of being seen.
One collection that keeps growing.
MARKS & FORMS is an ongoing study of the marks we create, the forms we shape, and the ideas behind them.

Patch Bakery Brand Identity Design
Patch is a warm, artisanal bakery brand built around one simple feeling: "A little warmth, freshly baked." Every detail is designed to make everyday moments feel special.
I developed Patch's brand identity — including logo, hand-illustrated iconography, typography, and color palette — combining a soft sage color scheme with detailed vintage-style bread illustrations to reflect the brand's handcrafted, cozy character.
The goal was to create a visual identity that feels nostalgic and inviting, communicating warmth and quality in every element — from the custom logotype to the intricate line-art details.

Sage instead of the usual warm terracotta/brown is the choice that keeps this from reading as generic rustic-bakery — the hand-drawn bread line art carries the handcrafted feel while the palette stays contemporary.
Logos & Marks — Collection 2026
A curated collection of selected logo marks and identity explorations created throughout 2026.
From geometric symbols and abstract forms to custom lettermarks, each mark was designed with a focus on clarity, distinctiveness, scalability, and strategic visual communication.

Rebranding for TX Staple Co, a strategic product-infrastructure lab with roots in a Houston fastening-supply business.
The client needed an identity that carries that inheritance without romanticizing it. The logomark is derived from the geometry of a loading pallet, with the TX monogram built into its frame. Every element is load-bearing. Nothing is decorative.
Creative. Media. Architecture.
"Without romanticizing it" is the hard part of an inheritance brief - industrial heritage tends to drift into either nostalgia or sterile tech, and deriving the mark from pallet geometry keeps it literal enough to dodge both. Going navy instead of a heritage red or worn-metal...
