Facade design

As part of Housing Works rebranding in 2010, I led development of brand identity for the Bookstore Cafe. Although there was a wonderful old identity, it didn’t fit in with Housing Works’ branding as a whole.

Beginning with the new Housing Works Bookstore Cafe logo & typography, I presented color studies and mood boards to capture the essence of this unique downtown institution. Using custom ‘word patterns’, I created a range of print and digital collateral: from merchandise such as mugs, totes and tees, to customizable sign templates and monthly event listing postcards, to the building’s facade and semi-permanent signage & wayfinding system.
