Performing nature – Love Nature label relaunch
We are very proud to have been involved in this Love Nature project once more. This time the relaunch of the label design took center stage. It was of utmost importance to achieve a great impact on the shelf and to clearly emphasize the product’s eco-friendly appearance despite the brand’s powerful character.

To attract the consumer’s attention and emphasize the professional character, together with the client we decided to enlarge the logo.
The white background supports the visibility of the logo and makes the overall brand look friendlier and stronger. In addition, splitting the label in two creates a higher level of attention for the consumer who notices the brand on the shelf.
While the logo has increased in size and abandoned its previous boundary in the form of the circle, some of the old elements were kept. The butterfly remains but has moved to a different horizontal position. This creates the impression of space and gives more room to all design elements.
It was a pleasure to support the Love Nature team with our expertise and skills to make the relaunch of the Love Nature Label Design a success.

In addition, the division of the label into two parts provides a structure for the content displayed on it. A very tidy design character is created, which is stressed further by the left alignment of the text. Moreover, all icons are now right-aligned and easy to recognize. The new division within the label provides a clean design impression and a modern look & feel without losing the powerful character that a detergent product needs.
Furthermore new elements are added as for example the laundry stack. This deepens the emotionality of the design and helps the consumer to find the right product.

Douglas Salon Hair now matches the new Douglas CI
The new packaging design for the expert hair care range ‘Douglas Salon Hair’ looks contemporary and professional while communicating performance and style. The Douglas hair care series has now been adapted to the new Douglas corporate identity that was relaunched in 2018 and thus gives it a premium character!
To reinforce the premium character of the brand, we used the colours white and black in combination with golden elements. Furthermore we have created a simple icon that conveys the image of hair in an abstract but indulging and caring way. So its flowing gradient lines on a golden background aesthetically imitate a hair wave.
As for the typography we chose a sans serif font to enhance the high-end look. The simplicity contrasts the high quality golden icon and gives the design its own charm. In order to attract the consumers’ attention and underline the professional character, together with the client we decided to name the product Salon Hair. The typo is simple yet playful and its soft appearance even reflects the concept of the brand’s indulging hair care products. Once again, the effect of contrasts is played with, as the design of the name contrasts the rather plain label design.
As we are experts in designing high quality products it was a pleasure for us to support the Douglas team with our know-how and skills to successfully reinvent the Hair Care relaunch.

Truly Care – a zero waste face mask
In our day-to-day work as packaging designers we notice that single treatment products, such as face masks, are often also sold in single-use plastic packaging. While single treatments are convenient for many consumers, single-use packaging means a burden on the environment. Therefore we challenged ourselves and designed Truly Care – a sustainable single treatment and zero waste face mask. Truly Care was designed to create as little waste as possible. The packaging consists of a paper wrap and a capsule that contains face mask powder. The paper can be returned to its recycling cycle because we paid attention to not using hot foils or any other finishing that would exclude the paper from its recycling cycle and make the packaging more expensive. The capsule itself is vegan and made of agar-agar – the same material used for nutritional supplement capsules.
Truly Care is developed by siids, the baries innovation hub.

The capsule contains the face mask powder which must be merged with water before application. By pouring hot water over the capsule, the shell dissolves. The powder can then be mixed with the water and the dissolved shell so that the mask can be applied. To support sustainability and to create a healthy product, the amount of ingredients is kept very low. The anti-age fuse mask consists of algae powder (spirulina) and green tea leaves. The calming fuse mask contains concentrated pomegranate powder and clay. The cleansing fuse scrub is made of coffee and charcoal.
No additional microplastics, chemical dyes or any other chemical agents are included. Truly Care is organic and vegan and the face mask can be flushed away without any concern.
The motto of Truly Care, “no frills included”, does not only refer to the ingredients but also to the product itself. The packaging material was kept as minimalistic and pure as possible. Furthermore the visual appearance of Truly Care speaks a clear and straightforward design language. The paper wrap only shows the main ingredient and the texture of the product to give buyers and consumers an idea of the product. On the back easy, minimalistic icons guide consumers through the user instructions. The product’s sustainability and organic ingredients are communicated through the “bio” and “vegan” icons. We refrained from using explicit sustainable features, like brown paper, because we believe that these days it is one’s duty and it goes without saying to design any product as sustainable as possible. This should not only be communicated to a sustainable target group because we want everyone to use and see it.

„Truly Care“ tells what the product does: It’s an honest and genuine caring product for your skin. Hence we chose a minimalistic but sturdy font to represent the products’ features. The omission of serifs underlines the „no frills included“ motto because a striking and detailed font would not represent the raw pureness and strength of this product. The „c“ in the logo was extended by a little line which, combined with the letter C, represents the shape of the Truly Care face mask capsule.

With Changin’ you can explore a new mind-set whilst enjoying the intense taste of selected, distilled herbs in a non-alcoholic spirit.

The label design very much represents that change. People are trapped in their own, monotonous world and can take a peek into a new, colourful and free world. It is inspiring to acquire a new outlook on things and to escape a stuck mind-set. The colours give you an idea of the positive experiences that await you, if you let it happen. The design of the bottle is split into two different image styles to emphasize the different mind-sets: a clean front label and colourful back label which is only visible from inside the bottle. It is designed like an entrance to another world which you can only access through Changin‘ – the non-alcoholic spirit.
To guarantee a sustainable packaging, Changin’ was designed plastic-free (glass bottle, wood & cork lid, paper label) and
its chosen ingredients are 100% organic.
The name Changin’ is a combination of the words “change” and “gin” as the taste of the drink is inspired by gin.The font of the logo and the colours on the back label represent the idea of psychedelic visualisations where all aspects of perception and mental associations can be altered – and that’s all about changin’ the mind-set.

The detailed design of the whole bottle forces you to take a close look and to engage with the design: pick up the bottle and look through it to see what’s going on inside. It arouses instant curiosity. In a world with limited attention spans, Changin’ encourages you to think and take a close look. It is a product of today’s zeitgeist and so much more than just a drink.

OARIS – A Sustainable Dental Hygiene Kit
OARIS (oris, Latin for “mouth”) is a sustainable dental hygiene kit that is modular and integrates perfectly into any bathroom. It contains several products that can be combined and interchanged.
The starter set consists of a toothbrush with an integrated interdental stick, a toothpaste dispenser and a floss stick. All designed components have a simple shape and are plugged together on a compact docking station. True to the motto „clean. floss. rinse“, the set offers the perfect tooth-brushing routine, while its compactness makes it ideal for traveling.
OARIS is developed by siids, the baries innovation hub.

When investigating the market for dental hygiene products, we found that the aspects of sustainability are mostly not taken into account. There is a high consumption of plastics and packaging in this market sector, which makes it difficult for the end consumer to behave in an environmentally friendly way. Since everything is packaged separately, we decided to develop a product kit that is sustainable and at the same time consumer-friendly. Moreover, the design should stand out and make the product a must-have item.
During the design process, it was of utmost importance that the product is refillable and made from recycled materials such as sugar cane plastic. To emphasize the product’s sustainability, we chose pastel green as the brand’s color.
The target group is people aged 25 and over. This demographic values the durability of products and their environmental friendliness. They appreciate good design and products that make daily life easier while being practical to use.

Working on sustainable products is always a challenge, but also a lot of fun. We are
pleased to present our latest result as a contribution to a more sustainable environment.
