Berlin-based studio Navarra.is created a bold and fiery identity for cannabis accessories brand Glaze, rejecting typical 'stoner' clichés in favor of a refined, fashion-influenced aesthetic. The identity uses a custom black grotesk wordmark based on Sharp Grotesk, paired with a striking red palette and uncoated paper materials. The result conveys both intensity and sophistication, aligning with Glaze’s high-end positioning.
