Direction B · Selected

This is October as Kinfolk sees it — not a soft season but a dramatic one. The identity draws from the harvest calendar rather than the florist's window: the weight of burgundy, the brightness of mustard, the depth of olive. Architecture over ornament. Typography that earns its weight. A wedding suite that looks like an editorial spread you haven't seen yet.

Burgundy is the keynote. It appears on the primary Save the Date and in the envelope liner's geometry — never on the cream pieces. Text on burgundy must be cream at ≥ 80% opacity.

Mustard is the signal colour — the one moment of warmth that animates an otherwise restrained palette. Used as accent only: the circle on the RSVP, geometric blocks in the liner. Never as a ground.

Terracotta carries the invitation — a warmer, more personal tone than burgundy. It is the colour of the first greeting. It does not appear alongside burgundy on the same face.

Cream is the menu's world. On light grounds, all body text must be dark charcoal at ≥ 85% opacity. The cream card is never pure white — the warmth is the point.
