Paper & Hollow – Story-Led Brand Identity Design

Monogram + Logotype System
Paper & Hollow is a self-initiated brand identity created for a fictional boutique publishing house. Inspired by literature, legacy, and storytelling, the brand is designed to feel tactile, minimal, and timeless.
This project explores how thoughtful design can evoke emotion, even in imagined spaces.

Paper & Hollow is designed to adapt seamlessly across light and dark backgrounds — ensuring clarity, contrast, and elegance in both print and digital applications.

The monogram was designed to scale — from wax seals to editorial merchandise.

Paper & Hollow reflects my approach to building brand identities that are minimal yet full of meaning.
This project is a study in emotional design — where typography, shape, and silence tell a story.
