A PRACTICE JOURNAL FOR MUSICIANS

BRAND IDENTITY / LOGO DESIGN / EDITORIAL DESIGN / PRINT DESIGN

A two-part design project exploring the relationship between music, movement and creative practice.

Originally developed as Belltone, a personal training concept specifically for musicians, the project began with a complete brand identity, including logo design, colour palette and merchandise concepts.

When the client's direction shifted toward developing a practice journal for musicians, the project evolved into Notabl. We created a new visual identity, journal cover designs and a custom interior layout incorporating practice planning, time tracking and reflection.

The resulting journal was brought into production and is now commercially available through Notabl.'s online store.
