Sies Marjan

  • Visual Identity & Logos

2016

I designed the visual identity for New York based Sies Marjan, led by former Dries Van Noten head of design Sander Lak: custom type logo, label design, invites and printed matter, and the website. With and for 2x4, New York. Art Direction by Ryan Weafer, Photography by Bruce Weber. “The Sies Marjan show was NYFW’s most buzzed-about debut,” The New York Times.

2x4 collaborated with designer Sander Lak (formerly of Dries Van Noten) to develop the naming, strategy, and identity for Sies Marjan, a new American luxury fashion house. Its name, a combination of his parents’ surnames, layers the opaque with the personal; our logo design similarly pairs a refined serif typeface with custom flourishes and a deep, warm maroon. Along with the brand identity, 2x4 art-directed a teaser video (lensed by Kacper Kacprzyk and featuring Guinevere van Seenus) and designed print materials for Sies Marjan’s inaugural show.
