COSY KILN
STORY:
Tall windows, creaky floors. A light filled old school, crumbly brick walls and comfy window seats. Friends gather to pull up a stool and dive into the mesmerizing journey that is creating pottery. Here we share the quest to manipulate matter into form, surrounded by community. Sleeve's pushed up, aprons on, and a soft buzz of creators in the flow of creation. Somedays mastering the clay, other days being humbled by the quest. One thing is omnipresent: the process is full of becoming. Together we nurture our souls.
The story behind this brand sets the stage for the elements to be extracted. Cosy Kiln is a place of generating energy. The buzz of creators in the flow encourages and bonds deeply. Learning to wield the clay is a journey worthy of weekly devotion. And together is amplifying and supportive.

ARCHITECTURE:
BRAND MARK
MAIN LOGO
WORDMARK
The logo faces were constructed by building upon a classic serif font (Bringbold Nineties) to establish an authentic and nostalgic feel. The letters were adjusted to create a flow between symbolizing the comfort of a continued journey with your kinfolk. The "O"'s were the perfect place to insert a piece of pottery, to anchor the purpose in the logos.

PRODUCT DESIGN
To add depth to Cosy Kiln's brand we created a painted texture with deep blues and browns with a thick line traveling through the image. The line symbolizes the journey of creation, the ups, the downs, and the plateaus. Creating pottery will humble the most confident artist, taking a ball of hard clay and ending up with a beautiful finished piece is a non linear process. Yet all of the steps and times when you have to start over on a piece you've already spent countless hours on, reminds of of life. Then you look around and you have your peeps there, living the frustration and the glory with you. This makes it profound, soulful. We carried this feeling into each element of the brand finishes.
