In their own words
Page Break is not really a book club; it is a weekend retreat company.
Our primary typeface is the very neutral Whyte which balances out the expressive typefaces well.
Freelancing is a cheat code for life; it gives me a lot of freedom.
One thing I miss from my full-time days is the studio life and culture.
They believe that experiences, especially difficult experiences, can and do serve as a portal or ‘transformation’ device.
We created over 100 icons and glyphs which are used in many ways.
I felt like the brand needed a serif and also a sans serif, which feels almost unobtrusive because there are so many other elements to the brand.
