OUIL502 - Studio Brief 1 - Spinster Sisters Co






“Inspired by vintage soap packaging, Spinster Sisters Co. approached me to design a unique, tactile box with a handcrafted feel that would allow the product to be seen, and the scent experienced. These small batch handmade soaps are produced with the finest natural ingredients. Rich with essential oils and botanicals, the products are gentle, sulfate free, pthalate free, and hypoallergenic.”
The boxes were deeply letterpress printed in one color on a heavyweight, rough uncoated stock. Boxes were die-cut and assembled, and color coded scent tags are easily added to the box front when the soaps are packaged.
The carbon footprint of the soap production facility is reduced significantly by a 3.3 kW solar photovoltaic system and passive solar construction. Every effort is used to ensure that the packaging will not end up clogging landfills by specifying recycled, recyclable or compostable packaging.”

Rather than using colour and pattern, this company focuses on text to create eye catching packaging. I really like the cut out to show the colour of the soap, I think this adds a more unique feel along with the ornate decorations.
