Think Packaging are a design-led structural packaging agency based in New Zealand. Fellow Kiwis Seachange have given them a new identity that takes the humble cardboard box and elevates it to hero status. It’s artfully done, both playful and slick – with pitch perfect art direction and photography that’s beautifully simple. Topped with great copy and endless details; such as a cutting matt inspired backdrop to website menu and typography that’s as sharp as a Swann Morton. Top marks (and folds).
You know those marks that just make you tingle with adoring jealously… well this is one of them. Lovely, simple and clever identity from Skinn for technical event support company John and Jane, no description required. Bravo.

The result is powerful, unique and memorable. Beautiful details include the short stories describing each flavour, with charming illustrations & words by Claire Curtis and Scott Perry.
The simple playfulness of this Bog Eyed Books identity is absolutely spot on. Bog Eyed is the brainchild of renowned children’s book author and cartoonist Gary Northfield and his Wing Commander Nicky Evans. Gary and Nicky decided to create a platform to service the current boom in British comics for children. Baxter & Bailey say ‘With a gift of a name, the logo almost designed itself’.

London’s airport duty free shops tend to be filled with horrible products covered in bad London clichés. This range of teas from The London Tea Co take this clichéd language (beef eaters, city bankers, policemen etc) and create a charming set of collectible tins.
