DESIGN CONCEPT
The concept centers on the balance between handcrafted artistry and modern minimalism. The primary type was drawn by hand in Illustrator, giving the invitation a unique character and sense of intimacy. Supporting illustrations and layout components were also created manually to build a unified visual voice.
This approach allowed the suite to feel both bespoke and polished, merging organic forms with structured composition to create a timeless aesthetic tailored specifically to the couple.
