Brief 5 - Context - Make your mark

For one of the concepts for the prospectus pitch, we had the idea of the recipient having control of the cover as believed an interactive publication would ultimately be more engaging. I gathered some contextual research which supported the concept.


MeBox (Graphic Thought Facility)

"A retail product designed and produced by GTF. The ends of each box consisted of a grid of perforated discs that could be pressed out to create initials, numbers, symbols and texts. When assembled, the double-thick construction showed the message against the contrasting colour of the box lining."

Studio Hansen (Heydays)

(cheers matt)

Brilliant branding by Heydays for Studio Hansen — perforated discs on the business cards allowed the recipient to form their own design / symbol / image. "By using the dot­ted grid as an iden­tity ele­ment we wanted to com­mu­ni­cate the stu­dio through the pre­cise appear­ance of the grid and as blank can­vas in itself."
