We partnered with Pentagram to develop custom lettering for Warner Bros.’ identity redesign. This included refining the iconic WB shield—featured on their legendary water tower—as well as creating a new wordmark and an original family of typefaces.
Drawing inspiration from the Art Deco-era lettering found in the original WB shield and the expressive, animated quality of classic sign painting, we created a display typeface that is condensed and tightly spaced. The accompanying text styles were carefully optimized for clarity and performance at smaller sizes.
