The Desi Curve

The Desi Curve sells hand-block printed textile, so the identity had to survive being printed on cloth, foiled on board and cut into brass — three surfaces that forgive nothing between them.

The TDC monogram is drawn as one interlocked mark with the ornament carried inside the letterform rather than around it, which is what lets it scale from a wax seal to a full fabric repeat without redrawing. Everything else in the system — the repeat, the swatch card, the retail bag, the leather envelope, the stamp block — is derived from that single mark.
