At Goods, an ethically-driven packaging design studio, all design solutions are led by ideas of sustainability and circularity. So when homeware brand Tekla reached out to the team to reimagine the packaging system for their bedding collection, Goods went back to the drawing board to craft a direction that would not only use materials that are kinder to the environment, but would also redefine the very notion of luxury. What began as a refinement of Tekla’s classic, heavy-weight white boxes soon changed course in response to the research and insights from interviews with the brand’s wholesale partners, and a keen study of their supply chain.
The visual ‘territories’ of design and the strategic routes of marketing and advertising run in cycles, parallel to consumer culture.

Mother Design was commissioned to name and brand a company that believes that when it comes to women’s bodies and the physical changes they experience, the things that no one talks about are the ones that need the most attention. Enter Bodily: a name that unapologetically addresses the topic at hand and reinforces the company’s role in helping people navigate their bodies, whatever shape, size, or stage of life.

Over the years, we have witnessed various shifts in the beverage market, and one that stands out is the swelling popularity of sober drinking. In an era where the youth is becoming increasingly health-conscious, and the discourse around our collective habit of drinking as a gateway to socialising is picking up, brands have stepped up their game by introducing more and more deliciously decadent and diverse options for non-drinkers, and those seeking beverages with lower alcohol content. In response, designers have created striking and beautifully crafted designs. From luxurious spritzes to refreshing lemonades, we showcase eight of our favourite projects.

The bright red hue paired with the striking typography systems […]

Within Little Brazil, Norwalk, you’ll find Ipanema; a four-decade-old family-run restaurant serving a mix of Brazilian and Portuguese food that has thrived as a result of the family’s roots. Paying homage to this rich history, and the loyal customers that have grown alongside it, NYC-based creative agency Saint-Urbain have designed a fresh identity for Ipanema – keeping their heritage and kinship in mind, alongside the bustling retrospective inspiration of Brazil’s Rio De Janeiro during the 1970s.
Since we featured their ‘Turn the Page’ campaign in October 2021, Montreal-based design agency Wedge have continued their work with Indigo; creating a revitalised identity system for Canada’s largest cultural department store. Maintaining some core aspects of Bruce Mau’s original 1996 identity, such as the logomark and signature indigo blue hue, Wedge sought to take the surrounding elements in a playful new direction – aligning the friendly verbal identity of the brand with its visual aesthetic.
