The Process

From initial sketches and block carving to custom type creation, the process for these shirts was highly tactile. The first round of design iterations featured an existing typeface, but the clients wanted to embrace a more handmade aesthetic. This led to the development of a hand-drawn custom typeface, which ultimately became part of the final design.
