mini studio is a French design atelier based in Paris and Tokyo, founded by Mia Thibierge and Justine Magnat-Biermé.
In 2025, we decided to rethink the identity to establish ourselves within the landscape of French and international graphic design studios.
The logo, inspired by medieval illumination and nature, reflects the founders’ appreciation for ornamentation and precious details—echoing the actual name of the studio.
GT Maru (Grilli Type), with its generous curves and playful demeanor, sets the studio’s name and geographical anchors, Paris and Tokyo. Its inspiration, Japanese signage, perfectly underscores mini studio’s international setting.
It is complemented by Matthieu Cortat’s Louize (205TF), whose typographic elegance, tinged with literary charm, reflects the studio’s affection for printed matter and typography.
It all comes together in the studio’s letterpress printed business cards.
The Japanese text on one of the cards was set in Yoshimichi Ohira’s Zen Old Mincho.
