Branding

Margin Books

Self-initiated project

I designed Margin Books as a fictional neighborhood bookstore with a patient, reader-led voice.

The challenge

The identity needed to feel literary without becoming nostalgic decoration. It also had to work on a narrow bookmark and a broad shop fascia.

Room in the margin. I turned the page margin into a simple red rule that organizes both the wordmark and the surrounding space.
