Coterie
Under the direction of Coterie’s in-house team:
Yelena Avanesova
(Creative Director)
Ro Gingrich
(Assistant Art Director)
Aimee Brodeur
(Director of Operations,
Brand & Creative)
Working alongside Coterie’s in-house design team, I was hired to create a new logotype for the baby company’s rebranding, which launched in the fall of 2023. The project’s scope began with a logotype and recently extended to include a monogram which will be launched with an upcoming product line in 2025. Both the logotype and monogram were drawn as a font with an optical size scale; allowing the team to effortlessly apply it to a range of outcomes big and small.
