§ Case study · Identity

Fine Art Solutions

A framing and art-services business trading on reputation but let down by an identity that looked more suburban print-shop than gallery partner.

Refined frame mark and editorial serif wordmark for Fine Art Solutions
01 · The brief

What we started with.

  • 01

    Lift the identity to sit comfortably next to the galleries the business already services.

  • 02

    Retain a subtle frame device — the recognisable equity — without keeping the dated execution.

  • 03

    Deliver a monogram for stamps, care cards and van signage.

02 · The approach

How we worked it out.

  • 01

    Redrew the frame device as a single hairline — a whisper of the old mark, not a shout.

  • 02

    Editorial serif wordmark set with generous letter spacing so it reads as gallery signage, not shopfront vinyl.

  • 03

    Monogram built from the same hairline weight so it disappears into a stamp or embosses cleanly.

03 · The outcome

What shipped.

  • 01

    An identity gallery partners are happy to co-brand with — a business result, not a design result.

  • 02

    Full asset pack in monochrome so signage suppliers, stamp makers and printers all match on the first try.

Deliverables
