Stanger — Character-Driven Visual Identity for Alternative Streetwear

A complete brand identity system concepted for a modern, trend-forward clothing brand. The project centers around a unique virtual brand influencer—a charismatic alien mascot designed to bridge the gap between street fashion culture and digital community building.

The Power of Character Branding: Moving away from static, traditional apparel logos, this identity introduces a mascot with genuine personality. The character acts as a silent ambassador for the clothing line, making the brand instantly recognizable and highly adaptable for digital content, social media storytelling, and custom garment labels.

The Pastel Palette Strategy: Instead of relying on heavy or aggressive streetwear aesthetics, I engineered a sophisticated, low-saturation pastel color system. Blending muted sage green, lavender pink, and pale buttercream yellow creates an unexpected visual contrast that feels approachable, quirky, and distinctly premium.

Scalability & Modern Versatility: The visual assets feature flexible layout lockups and isolated vector badges, ensuring seamless application across screen printing, heavy-embroidery merchandising, e-commerce grids, and physical product tags.

The restraint in the warm palette really lets the sound-object concept breathe—especially that shift from readable type to atmosphere.

I’ve been slowly updating all of our project imagery across a new website update and and our internal decks. Logos are only a small fraction of what we do for clients now, but I still love starting there. They often set the tone for the wider identity, the visual language, and the story we’re trying to tell. Also, pretty satisfying seeing some of my favourites all together on one page.

I Just Created HYDRUM VEIL 🔥

HYDRUM VEIL is a skincare brand built around a premium SPF 50+ sunscreen, developed as a complete brand identity, packaging design, and seasonal advertising campaign.

The project explores a question most seasonal beauty work gets wrong: how do you make a limited-edition campaign feel festive without making it feel cheap?

Instead of stacking decorative props, the campaign holds a strict visual system - vivid pumpkin orange, deep twilight violet, warm cream, and restrained black and lets a single product carry every frame.
