Bridge 4 English Translation Merchandising Design

[The Stormuncle]

I know Brandon, and Isaac just did a bunch of branding work for Stormlight recently. Brandon also talks about how you can think of fantasy texts as translations. This got me thinking. I combined the ideas and added some translation to the Bridge Four logo to make it more merchandising friendly. Attached are my first and my second drafts. Still a work in progress, but I proved the concept to myself. I have since moved on creatively. I’m not sure if I will ever circle back to it to get it to a finished state. I figured I would just share it as is. Second draft is next to official original design for reference. I tried balancing keeping it close to the original design while still making the 4 readable as possible.
