Most of the work
is deciding what
to leave out.
We make quiet brands for people who would rather be understood than noticed.
Aube is two rooms in a converted warehouse in Islands Brygge: one for drawing, one for printing. Four people, no account managers, and a rule that we only take work we would put on the wall.
Currently booking projects for Q2 2027.
Four projects,
and what they needed.
- 2026 Kiln & Co. Identity, packaging — ceramics studio, Bergen
- 2025 Fenn Quarterly Editorial system — a journal of slow architecture
- 2025 Nordhavn Coffee Brand & retail — three roasteries, one voice
- 2024 Salt Museum Wayfinding & catalogue — a small museum, taken seriously
Four things,
done properly.
We take one project at a time per discipline, which is why the calendar is honest and the work is not rushed.
-
01
Brand identity
Names, marks, type systems and the rules that keep them alive after we leave. Four to six weeks.
-
02
Editorial & print
Books, journals and annual reports. We set the type, choose the stock and stand at the press.
-
03
Packaging
Structural and surface design, including dielines and a recycled-content plan that survives shipping.
-
04
Digital
Sites that behave like printed pages: fast, quiet, and built to be edited by the client.
Three conversations,
then the drawings.
-
01
Listen
Two hours, no deck. We ask what the business needs and what the last attempt got wrong.
-
02
Make
One direction, drawn properly, rather than four sketches to choose between.
-
03
Hand over
Files, fonts, templates and a short written system. A month of questions included.
- Kiln & Co.
- Fenn Quarterly
- Nordhavn Coffee
- Salt Museum
- Bæk Architects
- Havn Books
Tell us what
you are building.
A paragraph is enough. We answer every enquiry ourselves, usually within two days, and we say no quickly when it is not a fit.
