The core idea of ‘Mindfully Made’ embodies the ethos behind everything Contain does as a business. This messaging was boldly brought to life through unapologetic all-caps typography in the wordmark and across communications.
Colour played a key part in the branding.
A vibrant, interchangeable colour palette was developed and used confidently across brand touch points. The palette was embedded into product photography using tones from the palette that complimented each particular project.

Studio packs containing a tote, product brochure/poster & post-it note business card were made to send to new and old clients promoting the rebrand.
Sustainable thinking
The booklet was printed in-house on Colorplan Citrine and Stephen's Gesso White and bound by Singer stitching. The custom post-it note holder was created as a playful and useful alternative to a business card. It was letterpress printed on Extract Ember, a paper made from recycled coffee cups.
