The one Summer worked on was a more delicate version of the selected direction but leaned into small town architecture as a brand element. Overall, it ended up feeling a little too lux for the client but it was still very beautiful. @alexanderson001.bsky.social also made a dope monogram.

The killed directions were also something really special.

When building out the brand elements we wanted to nod towards the visual language of tax forms. Little notches, tabs, checker patterns, monospaced type, rules, X's, boxes, etc. So we build out a little library of bits and bobs that can show up all throughout the brand.

With a four letter wordmark we knew we needed to make it sing. Dayan belabored every single curve of this thing to make sure it could be blown up on a billboard and also scaled down to be a footnote and still have a presence.

As a small biz finding a good accountant is ROUGH. You know it & I know it. Town.com is looking to change that & make doing your taxes a lot less stressful.
Fully custom wordmark by Dayan D'Aniello & @alexanderson001.bsky.social. Also, Alex killed it on these really fun posters.

Two years ago on this exact day we presented a brand that changed our studio forever.
Shout out to Henry Modisett & Phi Hoang for trusting the vision on round one. I've seen very few people roll out a brand as fast as them.
Thanks for giving us a shot. <3

Uh oh they are giving me a microphone again!
I'm so excited to talk about a new project that we've been working on for awhile now. The case study is already 20-mins long so I know no one is actually going to read it. No worries—I'll just walk you through it live!!

The team had so much fun designing their own stamps and when we got them we could NOT stop stamping.
Shout out to Scott McClelland at Paper Meets Press for his never ending attention to detail and getting these things just right.

I'm so so excited that these new cards got finished just in time for @figma's Config!!
I wanted to have cards that showed the entire teams different personalities so we got a beveled, foiled letterpressed fronts & then blank backs so everyone could stamp on their own custom designs.

✨ Meet our newest S&D designer Tully Ryan ✨
Tully actually joined us about a year ago as a contractor & then impressed us so much with his skill & amazing attitude that we knew he would be an incredible addition to our extremely tight-knit team.
Also a great bowler.
