Brand Identity

Mallard Street Records needed an identity that could represent emerging artists today while growing alongside a music industry being reshaped by technology.

The brand didn't need to choose between music's past and its future. The mission of the company is to help artists exist in the tension between them. The future of music production doesn't have to look "futuristic."

A brand identity built around a collision of editorial tradition and contemporary music culture. A custom gothic "M," built from mallard silhouettes, anchors a flexible visual system designed to move between artist representation, publishing, events, products and digital media.
