Meet herewith.
A recent identity for a company that builds events made to outlast the day.
The goal was simple to say and hard to do: make a brand people remember without making it shout. herewith isn't in the business of one-night spectacle. They design events that stay with you, so the identity had to carry that same feeling. Present, confident, and still there in your memory long after everyone's gone home.
So I leaned into a palette that's colourful but composed, warm without tipping into noise. The wordmark is fully custom, with character worked into every letter so it feels like herewith and nothing else. Confident without shouting was the line I kept coming back to.
Built to be remembered long after the lights go down.
An events identity is mostly met at distance and in a hurry, on a lanyard, a stage screen, a sign at the end of a corridor, and that is usually where 'confident without shouting' gets tested hardest. The small 'h.' on the social tiles looks like your answer to that: is it a...
Good question. Yeah, the h. can work standalone, it's its own mark, not just a shrunk version of the wordmark. It is part of the whole identity. You can actually see it on the cards applied in the layout.
Thank you for comment Artur!

Explored halftone for Chrome Hearts brand poster.
My thought process was how can I use halftone for any brand's visual identity, because the effect is so grunge, but found the perfect brand to match the grunginess.
Chrome Hearts is luxury for outliers & rebels. The whole brand's concept is unapologetic and to be rare.
Halftone usually drags a mark downmarket toward photocopied-zine territory, which is exactly why it works on a house whose whole luxury is built on rebellion. Does the dot texture survive small social crops, or does it start to fill in at that size?
