Hometown London - Branding

I worked with the Head of Art at Hometown London on a re-design of their brand, involving the website, a new credits book, collateral stationery and a set of GIFs featuring the logo.

The new identity is based on randomized patterns and subtle colour blocks; I chose to replicate this structure and look using the patterns as pacing elements throughout the book, alongside a clean layout to let the focus be drawn to the work.

Each post featured a creator from 6 different cities: London, Shanghai, Los Angeles, Paris, Tokyo and New York.
