Belgrade Fear Death By Water Artl Studios was commissioned by 'Belgrade' – a rock band based in Glasgow, Scotland – to design packaging for their new E.P, 'Fear Death By Water'. The band wished to focus on the idea that the structure of our society creates citizens fearful of individuality. This fact is compounded by the title given to the E.P. The cover focuses on the artistic and moody side of the music, but as a contrast, the chosen colour scheme highlights the melodic nature they also create. The illustration has not been given an identity, however, it features a very ordered pattern with water falling into it. The lines around the figure are free-flowing and unsorted to emphasize the band's technical ability. This creates a strong contrast with the order inside the head. The logo and typography cling to the structured nature of the design and act as a visual balance on both sides. The whole package includes; CD Sleeve and CD, as well as a poster featuring the illustration. Artl Studios is a multi-disciplinary studio with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the design industry. Ultimately, the aim is to improve the way clients and their audiences connect by realising the potential of intelligent design across an everexpanding portfolio of communication channels.

Herokid Magic Box Herokid™ is a clothing brand created by Robert Roman (Registred Kid). The main reference for this brand and the people who compose it is the culture of skateboarding and street art from Barcelona. The concept for this package was to create a box that can be a T-shirt package and also a decorative and promotional element. The Herokid logo served as inspiration to design a package in corrugated cardboard that needs no adhesive for assembling. There’s also a small version which you can download from http://www.herokid.es/downloads and make yourself.

egg box The materials used to make this product are natural microwaved cardboard and a complementary material rubber. The rubber functions as a shape memory alloy and holds eggs regardless of their size. The eggs are placed into an ellipsoid cut from the card. The egg holder is open at the top, but if its turned upside down, it will still hold the eggs; they will not fall thanks to the elasticity of the rubber. It's easy to fill up, and as a user-friendly product, the consumer can get the egg without having to open it. The egg holder is made of a single piece of card, and is created not by glueing, but by folding and fixing. It can be stored in piles, and if the sides are increased, it can withstand lateral forces. From an environmental point of view, it's recyclable, and the production is possible with the least quantity of material and fewest cut-offs.

Heartwood Based in South Africa, Heart Wood is a newly launched tree gifting service that derives beautifully packaged saplings, an alternative to the environmentally unfriendly habit of buying 'dead' flowers. We started by naming the company. 'Heart Wood' refers to wood from the centre of a tree, and also communicates a caring ethos. Aesthetically,the challenge was to convey this thinking without enviro-clich's. Lots of thought went into maximising materials, with collateral often performing dual functions.

R Our brief was to design original name, identity design and packaging for a European experimental fashion label. It had to be minimalistic, unique, modern and useable. We designed a brand identity with packaging design based on the simple Helvetical letter 'R' (the label's name) and two main colours: white and red. The packaging for the label's t-shirts is very simple and consists of a cylindric metal box and plastic cover.

Water bottle The approach of this design is all about the essential: in order to find a pure shape one has to spot the essence of things. The solution for a particular design always means finding a certain answer to some questions. This pure shape answers one simple question: what stands as the basis of the water element? The water drop has all the characteristics which make a shape pure and perfect, while also representing an archetypal image of timeless fluidity. This bottle shape is relatively easy to produce, using a regular industrial method (blow and blow). One important element of this design is the bottle cap, because it continues the lines of the bottle, making the elegant image of the water-drop concept more obvious. Because of the use of regular technical methods to produce, as well as common material (glass) the bottle is easy to produce at a large scale and also easy to recycle, and due to its unique shape, space can be saved during transportation by designing a special package - (two bottles down, one reversed between them).

A bottle to be peeled To lunch the new formula of SMIRNOFF CATPIROSKA®, the most popular Brazilian drink, we created bottles covered with a sleeve simulating the texture of the fruit for the flavors Lemon, Passion Fruit and Red Fruit, with a diagonal perforation. The consumers could feel the unique experience of peeling a drink that taste like fruit. We sent the bottles in wooden crates to a selected mailing of journalists and opinion formers, just like the fruits are stransported in large produce markets in Brazil. This initiative generated PR in specialized magazines and all over the Internet.
