About

The Olde Forest is a design and publishing studio operating at the threshold between the rational and the mythic — where the logic of systems meets the language of myth. The practice spans critical and speculative design and an independent imprint producing short graphic novels.

Inside every complex system is a recursive logic — a pattern that, once traced, can be used to build something new. Work begins with rigorous research and ends in constructed worlds: precise, layered, and deliberately strange.

Everything built here is a form of mythopoeia — world-building with a designer's precision. Critical design and graphic narrative are the tools; estrangement is the outcome. Every project begins from the same conviction: to understand this world, build another.

We are open to collaboration, publishing enquiries, and design commissions. If you're working on something that requires an unusual kind of thinking, we'd like to hear about it. Write to us.
