Steampunk Maniacs
Steampunk Maniacs needed a logo that captured their unique identity, blending Victorian elegance with industrial grit.
We developed a memorable mark that reflected the brand’s steampunk aesthetic and helped them stand out in a niche market. To support their growing presence, we also designed a matching website that functioned as both a portfolio and an eCommerce shop.

Steam Power Branding
Our client creates one-of-a-kind costumes and accessories that look like they’ve stepped out of a science fiction world, rich with gears, brass, and ornate detailing. Steampunk, inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery, is equal parts function and fantasy.
To reflect the genre’s Neo-Victorian charm, we crafted a logo that blends filigree, clockwork, and old-world elegance. Two contrasting ornate typefaces were combined, intentionally clashing, to evoke a bold, vintage-meets-retro aesthetic that feels both handmade and theatrical.

A Site Built for Show and Sell
The client came to us with an existing website, but it lacked the flexibility and function they needed. We redesigned the entire layout with a fully responsive structure and improved user experience. Custom icons were created to represent each shop category, reinforcing the brand’s distinct visual style.
To simplify shop management, we integrated the site with their Etsy store, making product updates seamless. We also added dedicated galleries to showcase past leatherwork, props, and custom costumes, transforming the site into both a storefront and portfolio.
