One Village Coffee



Designed by Able, United States.
Over the past 9 months we have spent a lot of time with the employees, roaster, and fans of One Village Coffee. One of our goals was to package the sentiments of "a village" into a customer experience. The bag was printed in white + two colors with a matte finish and gloss trapping over the logo. Because the budget didn't allow for more than one type of bag, a different label with a customized icon is used to identify each type of coffee.

1300 on Fillmore



We were challenged with developing a specialty foods packaging system for 1300 on Fillmore that would become an extension of the restaurant experience. Differentiating enough to drive sales and awareness of Chef Lawrence, as well as traffic to the restaurant, the packaging brings him to the forefront, while focusing on the artisanal nature of his craft and paying homage to where it all happens—1300 on Fillmore.

A new tagline "happiness is airborne" is utilized to reflect the idea that happiness can spread just as germs do, so spread the happiness of Airborne. Happy comments from customers are printed on the backs of the packaging.

Gelati Sky



Designed by Truly Deeply (formerly Storm Design Brand DNA), Australia.
Gelati Sky is a boutique, premium gelati range. The story of Gelati Sky has a strong personality driven by Gelati Sky founder Paul Scalisi’s memories of growing up in Rome, eating gelati – ‘a world where every moment seemed frozen in an amazing sensory assault and every cloud in the sky made you feel it was about to rain gelato’. We were looking for something that was strikingly unique, represented his story and would create conversation. The communication platform of ‘it’s what dreams taste like’ was derived out of the brand strategy definition for Gelati Sky conducted by Brand DNA.

The goal was to express these feelings through the package and the tastes through the flavors. The concept that we came up with was born out of these ideas. We combined the imagery of Italy with objects that looked like the flavor to create a unique, organic and scrumptious shape for each flavor. The packaging looks like it is part of memories and dreams from Italy.

Gelati Sky started as a boutique Gelati range servicing restaurants and specialist food shops. The packaging was the strongest step to building a brand consumer could connect with. As small ultra premium brand, the package needed to take on a more delicate personality than the bigger, more established companies. The package needed to not only reflect the personality and story but also to look different while still maintaining premium feel. The taste of the Gelati is simply amazing and we knew that if we developed a rich, beautiful label, one that would get buyers and customers excited it would be very successful.

Dream Ball



Concept by Unplug Design, Korea.

With Fifa World Cup 2010 kicking off, maybe we should spend some time thinking of the less fortunate children in the world. Sharing little joys like kicking a ball around would mean a great deal to their lives.
If children take off the paper from an aid box by following the patterns on it, and assemble those parts with the attached instruction, they can get a football. We can apply those patterns on any type of boxes - a square type, a cylinder type.
Now, when children get a cylinder type aid box filled with supply, they can move it by rolling that box.
