Media kit
Logos and usage guidance.
Use the clearest version for the format. Do not stretch, distort, crop, recolor, redraw, or rotate the logo or artwork.
Full-color logos
Use for digital or print media when color is preferred and the surrounding layout is simple enough for the mark to read clearly.
Black and white block versions
Best for formal documentation, press packets, high-contrast placements, or layouts that need a minimal studio mark.
Texture applied
Use when the logo should feel more art-forward and the texture supports the tone of the piece.
Flower logo
Use for collaborations, creative projects, social graphics, or instances where the artistic side of the studio is being highlighted.
