Channeling Basquiat’s crown in contemporary branding without copying:
- Use the crown as energy, not a literal mark: translate it into angular accents or step shapes.
- Keep the hand-drawn vibe: textured strokes or pressure-sensitive lines, not perfect vectors.
- Palette: one saturated yellow + charcoal + off-white; avoid full graffiti rainbows.
- Pair with raw, condensed type; track it tight to mirror street signage.
- Apply sparingly: as a corner tag, section marker, or merch badge—not the primary logo.
Best for: streetwear drops, art-led events, or brand moments that need edge without losing clarity.
