Introducing SIBLING

Let's take a second to clink our imaginary champagne glasses and have a toast! After much (too much, way way too much) deliberating, I have settled on SIBLING as the name for my design studio. Not only does it fulfill my list of requirements for a business name, but it also references an important part of my life - middle child syndrome. Most people have only heard about the negative symptoms middle children often exhibit, but they also tend to be independent, easy going and extremely creative. Being the most middle of 5 siblings has played a pretty big role in shaping the way I communicate, relate to people, solve problems and thus, the way I design.


So SIBLING is going to be both the name of my freelance business and also my etsy shop. I will probably be in a transitional period for another couple of months and am hoping to start out the new year with my new name, branding, website, etc. SIBLING will have its own blog for design work on the SIBLING website, and this blog will transition to more personal and craft related posts. For now though, I am still going to post everything here. 


The logo is almost finalized and I'm just trying to decide between fonts. Feel free leave a comment and weigh in, especially you design peeps. I really appreciate it.

Font: Archer | I love this font, especially the 'S'.
However, Archer is everywhere and has a bad rep for being overused.

Font: Gotham Rounded | Modern &  friendly

Font: Knockout | I have loved this font for a long time so I know it has staying power for me.
This font family includes over 30 styles which makes it ultra useable.
