Visual identity for RTD. RTD is a series of premixed cocktails set to primarily focus on nightlife. The identity is based around an adaptable & flexible typographic system along with strong, glowing colors. With the overall mission to create a utilitarian aesthetic that favors exposing the elements which the product is made upon. Creating the synergy that fuels the brand.
Visual identity for Altsilk. Altsilk is producing high quality fabric for a sustainable future. The identity is mainly driven by the custom wordmark accompanied by a typographic system, reflective of the future driven new-tech company. The mission was to develop a modern, futuristic visual identity for the brand to distinctly differentiate from its competitors.
Visual identity for Alice. A conceptual space that combines hair treatments, art, and exhibitions. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Alice was founded in 2022. The identity is minimalistic yet distinct and features a custom, contemporary wordmark as its main element. Made in 2022 at Studio Ahremark
Visual identity for Hill. Including packaging and bespoke typeface. Hill is a manufacturer of manuka honey products with the goal of bringing their products into a contemporary lifestyle. Usually connected with medicinal associations, Hill realized that manuka products have a huge unexplored potential in the industry as a lifestyle supplement. The goal was to reach a younger health-conscious audience. Resulting in a confident typographic approach and a vibrant color palette composed all connected to the product itself.
E-commerce for April. Founded by the creators of high-growth start-up Estrid, April is a wellness brand focusing on supplements for the everyday consumer. In a collaboration with Studio Ahremark I got a chance to design the web experience and parts of the identity. Live site
Foraging Protocol for Gwella Mushrooms as part of their Psychedelic Support Series. An ongoing collaboration previously containing Foraging Guides and Dosing Guides. Previous work can be found here. Main identity by Parker Studio
