In their own words
Where bold and abundant gold accessories play a significant role in the overall look.
With this collection, we shifted the tone of voice to a brighter and softer side.
To highlight information and create a more personal touch, I chose Cucina.

Haben Grotesk was selected as the logotype to add a playful side.
Although the brand is Chinese, the English language was used in the communication to emphasise Nordicism to Chinese consumers.
