Tailored by Taylor
LOGO I BRANDTailored by Taylor is an emerging fashion brand based in Portland, Oregon, and my role was to develop a distinctive visual identity that set the company apart from traditional industry conventions. Rather than relying on familiar monograms or standard wordmarks, I created an original brand mark that reflects the brand’s individuality and modern approach to fashion. Alongside the logo, I developed a cohesive brand strategy and a detailed set of guidelines to ensure consistency across all future applications.
