Branding to make your hair stand on end

Medulla Hair Design

Brief

Branding, art direction, design and illustration for an upcoming hair design studio.


Solution

The ‘medulla’ is the innermost layer of a hair follicle. It is the pith or core to every strand of hair. This definition struck a chord with the salon’s founder, whose belief is that a stylist’s duty is to to understand the client (core) before touching a strand of hair. Only then can a client and stylist collaborate.

The brand is an extension of the director’s personality. It had to express a youthful, unique handcrafted style, while showing an appreciation for tradition. To achieve this the logo blends a historic typewriter typeface with the executional style of stenciled graffiti.
