I’ve created a brand! Catalog is a Museum of Collections. I’ve designed this brand to feature collected items, art, artifacts, junk, whatever from various artists. I have collected things for years, some not of my own choosing. From generation to generation, my family has been collecting the Commemorative Glassware of King Edward VIII. Here’s the background story on that: King Edward was in line to be King of England in 1937. Engaged to marry a commoner, he abdicated the throne to marry the peasant woman he loved. During that time, bookoos of items were fabricated to commemorate his ascension to the throne. Unfortunately, it was never to be. I was just fascinated with each piece, with his face, stating “Forever Shall he Reign”. Since then, I have collected pieces here and there.
The idea for Catalog is based upon how we as humans like to catalog every aspect of our lives. We try to label everything, to fit things into categories, organize it. But, can it really be organized? I’m not so sure. From this idea of Cataloging data I have designed an identity for an art museum complete with poster front and back with blurb and exhibition dates, times and info., postcard mailer front and back, email blast, and mock up for website.
