Studios:The Office of Ordinary Things (TOOOT)
In their own words
Now imagine that the very first person to sign a lease was the founder of a very dope type foundry, and that person hires you for a very rad project and is absolutely the coolest chillest client ever.
The typographic focal point of the brand is Bagoss by Displaay, which arguably has the nicest looking question mark of all time.
It has the perfect blend of friendliness and legibility, imparted by its subtle stroke contrast, angular terminals and exaggerated x-height.
