Basalt & Birch
A stonemason and a joiner merged their workshops and needed one name on the van.
Two established workshops, two sets of customers and a shared building. The owners wanted the new company to feel like neither had been swallowed by the other.
The monogram sets the two initials at equal weight around an ampersand. The hexagon pattern is taken from columnar basalt and is only ever used large — on the van, the workshop door and the back of the quote folder.
Most of the project was paperwork: a quote that explains itself, an invoice that matches it, and a short guide for the office on which template to use when.
