Kindred Knot is an independent TTRPG developer built on the power of collaborative storytelling. This project explores the intersection of ancient mysticism and modern tabletop gaming through a cohesive visual identity.
The heart of the brand is an emblem that functions as both a sigil and a signature.
Inspired by the rugged aesthetic of high-fantasy adventure, the logo depicts a protective rune carved into a jagged stone.
- The monogram is a minimalist interpretation of the letters KK (Kindred Knot), mirrored along a vertical axis.
- The two Ks together form a knot, an unbreakable loop representing the alliance of the four founding team members.
- The logo represents a visual metaphor for the “kindred” spirits who gather to weave stories together.
The font, Plus Jakarta Sans, brings a geometric and modern contrast to the jagged nature of the stone emblem. It has a very good readability across digital rulebooks and physical character sheets.
The colour palette is made up of Vivid Yellow and Deep Blue-Violet. The former evokes the spark of inspiration, while the latter provides a mystical backdrop that symbolises the imagination.
A brand identity that feels established yet edgy, positioned for a developer that treats every game manual like a sacred artefact and every playgroup like a fellowship.
