Basgiath War College Branding

A Brand Book Based off of the Fictional College “Basgiath War College” from the book series Fourth Wing

For this project, I developed a brand identity for the fictional Basgiath War College from the book series Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros. The goal was to create a visual system that felt authentic to the world of the story, ensuring that every logo and deliverable resembled something that could exist within its universe.

Because the setting draws from a medieval-inspired time period, where imagery would be handcrafted rather than digitally produced, I focused on bold, symbolic design elements and carefully selected typefaces that reflect that era. All visual choices were rooted in descriptions from the book, allowing the identity to feel cohesive and true to the source material.

Working from a text-based world also gave me the freedom to explore and interpret details creatively, pulling inspiration directly from the narrative as well as select fan interpretations. The final outcome includes a series of logos and three key deliverables: a hanging banner, a welcome package, and a rider’s jacket, each designed to reinforce the identity and culture of Basgiath War College.
