Brand Design - Noisy Ghost Co.

Truffles & Bedlam

The Truffles & Bedlam brand embraces a creepy cute aesthetic with pastel goth colours, and indulges in the obscure, odd, and surprising. A maker of magnetic handmade bookmarks, stickers, and papercraft art inspired by fandom and pop culture, the brand design embraces a willingness to play while maintaining a tongue-in-cheek a sense of humour.

The Witch of Laurel Wood

A brand designed around the concept of rebirth, magic, mystery, and darkness that nevertheless embraces its pagan roots — literally. Belonging to a kitchen witch, iconography for the brand is drawn from the hermetic aphorism, “As above, so below,” and references the elements of earth and air, and a balance between them.

Noisy Ghost Co. Brand

Noisy Ghost Co. is a macabre but affectionate brand. It’s sugar skulls and ice cream, coffins and candy: a red sock accidentally mixed in with the laundry, turning its emblematic death-shroud-sheet… pink. It is the spirit of design that remains curious, inquisitive, and explorative… and occasionally levitates the furniture to get your attention.

Tooth & Bone

The Tooth & Bone brand is as much an assembly of items as the collection of oddities the blog houses. It recalls the practices of collection and display from the Enlightenment, largely because the content curated by the T&B blog is similarly themed.

Lightness

When Kathy Flynn approached me to produce a logo for her metaphysical school and store, offering workshops and classes for people interested in new age spirituality, we opted to play with the theme of a candle flame integrated into the logo. Typography is clean and minimalistic to suit an uncluttered space.

Kira Butler Author Brand

The brand mark for horror writer, Kira Butler, incorporates a vintage 1920 Corona typewriter and baby batwings into the logo’s design: blending her love of writing historically-rooted fiction and dark fiction for young adults. The design has been applied to stationary and is predominantly featured on her author website.

Ghosts & Co.

An unusual approach to design warrants an unusual logo. The brand mark for Ghosts & Co. is a jackalope — a cryptid that has a particular personality. We christened him “Truffles.” Not just an ordinary bunny rabbit, the Ghost & Co. brand mascot has antlers.

Noisy Ghost Books

The Noisy Ghost Books brand mark blends a love of reading (and a favourite place to do it — an antique armchair) as well as a subtle reference to poltergeist activity. Small shadows beneath the chair legs indicate that something is levitating the furniture.

The Midnight Society

The Midnight Society is an online magazine publishing articles that cater to writers in the middle grade and young adult horror and dark fiction genres. Inspired by Are you Afraid of the Dark?, the group discusses everything spooky from pop culture to trends in books.

Noir by Brady

The brand design for Noir by Brady needed to fit a few requirements: the typography needed to be contemporary and clean, it needed to be bold enough to work on either a light or dark background, and it needed to accommodate multiple formats for multiple product types.
