    paper Barton Bray Studio Identity

    After a change in leadership, the company adopted a new name and needed a fresh identity to match its bold, maverick spirit. As leaders in their field, they wanted something creative, contemporary, and confident to reflect their new direction.

    I kept the identity clean and modern. I used the BBS from the name as a supergraphic, making it a flexible design element that can adapt with colours and imagery. It lets the brand evolve while staying consistent. Paired with sleek, confident typography, the result is a bold and refined identity.
