The story

Atelier Sorrel

The brief

Atelier Sorrel is two makers and one workbench. Their pieces are slow, exact and quietly unusual.

Our approach

We drew a wordmark from the profile of their signature joint and paired it with an unhurried serif. The catalogue is printed on uncoated stock and bound with a single thread.

The outcome

Sorrel now ships to collectors in nine countries, all from the same bench.

The joinery is the logo. We just traced it.
