CBGB 

A custom typeface and wordmark
for the venue that gave birth to punk rock.


Custom Typeface, Identity


CBGB was an iconic music venue in the 1970’s and a driving force behind punk culture in Lower Manhattan. If the venue were to reopen its doors, musicians would once again embrace the rebellious sounds of punk music. A custom display typeface acts as a defiant voice for the brand. Saturated colors and stickers reflect a new wave of musical impact pioneered by CBGB.
