Brand identity & collateral design
No Initiative is a creative project born from a group of college friends who share a love for storytelling, strategy, and Dungeons & Dragons. The name comes from their playful rejection of one of the game’s core mechanics, giving the brand a personality that feels casual, irreverent, and rooted in the community around the game.
I developed an identity inspired by the D20 dice, one of the most recognizable elements of Dungeons & Dragons. The logo combines the shape of the die with the initials “NI,” creating a mark that immediately connects the brand to the tabletop experience while remaining distinctive enough to work across digital platforms.
Electric blue gives the identity a bold, energetic presence, particularly for its YouTube channel and other digital applications. Small details, like the die-inspired dot on the “i,” add personality and reinforce the connection to the game without making the identity feel overly literal.
The identity was extended into branded collateral, creating a flexible visual system that reflects the group's creative energy, sense of humor, and love for storytelling.
