Logo Design for a Publishing Company

Project Description
Client: Night Guild Studios
Services: Graphic Design
Year: 2024
Night Guild Studios approached me to create a bold new logo for the launch of their tabletop publishing brand. The goal was to establish a strong visual identity that captured the dark fantasy tone of their work while remaining flexible enough to grow with the brand. The final design delivers a striking, memorable look that sets the foundation for their future releases.
Client Needs
Night Guild Studios was a newly launching publishing studio focused on creating Dungeons & Dragons content, supplements, and unofficial tabletop material. They needed a strong brand identity to support their debut, starting with a logo that felt bold, dark, and thematic. The goal was to capture a gothic, fantasy-driven tone while still feeling professional, readable, and adaptable across future products.
The Work
I began by exploring concepts rooted in dark fantasy symbolism, ultimately developing a design centered around a fractured moon motif. This concept was paired with bold circular framing, gothic-inspired typography, and subtle decorative elements to give the mark depth and character. The result was a logo that felt powerful, mysterious, and instantly recognizable while remaining clean and versatile across different applications.
The Outcome
Night Guild Studios launched with a strong visual identity that clearly reflected the tone and atmosphere of their brand. The final logo provided a solid foundation for their future content, working seamlessly across digital and print use. With its bold, single-color adaptability and striking presence, the logo helped establish a clear identity and gave the studio a confident starting point for their debut in the tabletop space.
