Arkiv Library

September 2025
Arkiv is more than a furniture select shop - it is a place of preservation and storytelling. Rather than simply selling pieces, Arkiv collects historical and unique furniture, keeping them as if in a library of objects. The collection extends into curated exhibitions, where each piece is recontextualized through thoughtful installations.
The visual identity is inspired by the structure of library archives - stacked boxes, files, and papers. These forms shaped a modular design system. The typography draws from the utilitarian labels found on archival storage, while the color palette reflects the tones of aged paper and ink.
The branding is kept intentionally minimal, allowing the focus to remain on the furniture itself, each piece carrying its own history, memory, and presence.
