Christies

A logo exploration commissioned by the world’s oldest auction house. The portrait of James Christie needed to be recognisable at 1/4” across on the business cards. The letterforms were inspired by the incised memorial lettering on the back wall of St. Paul’s church in lower Manhattan. Design direction by Diana Salzburg.
