A small self-initiated branding project created to keep creativity moving between larger client and portfolio work. “Morrow & Pine” explores a softer, more atmospheric identity direction through typography, tone, and visual storytelling — focusing on the balance between minimal branding and immersive world building.

Two warm ups today, both might become full case studies:
Parlata: an audio-postcard service that records and archives local dialects. Every recording becomes a small printed card with a QR link.
MODULO: an Industrial IoT brand. Olive, navy, one wobbly blob.
One is warm and human. One is technical and playful. Which would you want to see go all the way?

Love it
A little more about the inspiration behind Tindara.
I wanted the identity to have a connection to Tindari, Sicily. The Madonna di Tindari statue was the starting point for the symbol, while Sicilian decorative patterns inspired the graphics around it.
For the colors, I chose mustard yellow, deep green, and burgundy, balanced with cream. I wanted to bring some of that warmth and richness into the packaging, while keeping the different elements comfortable together.
For me, these references are what give the project its character and sense of place.
Inspired by, I'm sharing one of my own concepts that wasn't chosen for the final design, but that I absolutely love.
This idea is so good! We all have concepts hiding in our drafts that never get to see the light of day. I think they deserve their moment, too. ✨
How many concepts die in your drafts folder? 💀
In the spirit of Inktober, a digital sketch that never saw the light.
This was a lettering-inspired brandmark...
