Custom logo designed for one of the oldest and well respected paper companies in the U.S.A; Crane.
Commissioned by Collins as part of their superb rebrand of the 250+ year old company.
A previous typeface of my own design WT Monarch, formed the basis for the design.
This was then re-drawn, developed, and refined to create a robust humanist wordmark for Crane, designed to work at a variety of sizes and a wide range of different materials:
From small digital environments to large scale shifts to 100% cotton produces, plus print trapping, engraving and registration.
Art Direction: Collins
