WYRM — Personal Brand & Studio Identity
Personal brand and creative studio identity system
Brand Identity • Motion Design • Web Design • Visual Strategy
WYRM — a name inspired by the legendary dragon, symbolizing power, wisdom, and transformation. This is my personal brand and creative studio identity, representing my journey as a motion designer and creative director.
The dragon has always been a symbol that resonates with me — mythical, powerful, and unforgettable. Just like the brands I create for my clients, WYRM embodies strength, creativity, and the ability to leave a lasting impression.
My Mission: "We build brands people remember" — Step by step, we light your brand. I specialize in creating cinematic brand experiences that transform how audiences perceive your business through strategic visual storytelling.
This case study showcases the complete brand identity system I developed for myself, including logo design with the signature T-lockup, visual identity with oceanic color palettes, brand strategy, motion design with character systems, and web presence. Every element was carefully crafted following the principles of simplicity, consistency, and the power of black and white with strategic use of white space.

Brand Philosophy
Simplicity Rules
Less is more. The logo is designed to be instantly recognizable at all sizes and in all contexts.
Consistent Experience
Every touchpoint maintains the same level of quality and attention to detail.
Embrace B/W Power
The logo should be white on darker backgrounds and black on lighter backgrounds for maximum impact.
White Space as the Continent
Clear space around the logo is equal to the cap height of the "T". Nothing breaks the limit of this space.
Logo System & Typography
T-Lockup
The signature T-lockup creates a distinctive visual anchor for the brand. The interlocking T's form a unique geometric pattern that's both modern and timeless.
- Clear space equal to cap height of "T"
- Nothing breaks the T's created boundary
- Instantly recognizable at all scales
SF Pro Typography
Print + Digital intertwined with Swiss bank sensibilities — strong, safe, and unique. The typeface embodies precision and clarity.
- Light, Regular, Medium, Bold weights
- Swiss-inspired precision
- Digital-first approach
Oceanic Color Palette
The brand palette is important because these colors are unique to WYRM and should be synonymous with the brand. Used sparingly for important moments of support, assurance, delight, calls to action, and especially moments of interaction.
