Knuthenlund

Yanda — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 08:08:08 +0000

“Knuthenlund Estate in Lolland has operated an organic farm since 2007, striving to offer high quality organic foods and at the same time taking care of the unique nature, that is characteristic for the Danish island of Lolland. In the Easter of 2009, Knuthenlund opened a whole new dairy farm in one of the former barns on the estate. The dairy farm is based on milk from the estate’s own organic milking sheep and goats. The fresh milk is handled very carefully to preserve its taste and structure.

Knuthenlund puts pride in affecting the environment as little as possible. This approach is also important in the packaging design process. This is why Knuthenlund Sheep’s Brie is sold in boxes made of sustainable poplar wood. And the brie is wrapped in paper made by potato starch. Knuthenlund’s Sheep’s and Goat’s Milk is sold in reusable glass bottles. In the printing process, it has been important to limit the use of printing colour. Knuthenlund also offers gift boxes made by unprocessed wood. The inspiration came from the old fashioned hay boxes. The box are isolated with the estate’s own hay and are therefore in line with Knuthenlund’s ambition to run a farm that both shows consideration for product quality and the environment.”

Kaleidoscope – Made from Typography

Yanda — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 02:49:16 +0000

My topic in seminars of typography was “Light and Typography” so I decided to create five kaleidoscopes. This toy was named by combining three Greek words: kalos – meaning beautiful; eidos – form; and skopeo – I see. A lot of glittering glass cullets makes amazing pictures because of the light. The main idea was to use characters made from coloured transparent material and convert them into abstract pictures.

Wrapping Paper by Elliot Burford

Yanda — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 02:43:46 +0000

Wrapping paper is generally impersonal. Even if you are not in attendance when the gift is opened, this paper lets you say ‘Surprise!’ whilst simultaneously empathising with their dread of a dull present.

The exterior side of the paper displays an image of the giver, the facial expression portraying bored expectations of another useless present. Once opened, the gift is revealed along with an image of the prescribed excitement one is expected to display. A sarcastic tone can be achieved through gift selection, for example, a banana.

Naked King

Yanda — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 02:40:42 +0000

“The words on the bottle label are in Greek, and are the name of the wine which is “NAKED KING. The words on the wooden box are the whole fairytale “The emperor’s clothes” by Hans Christian Andersen and highlighted and bigger are the words “the king is naked”.

Brief: A new winemaker contacted us in order to provide a visual identity to their new wine. The wine is of extremely high quality, but free from any filtering or chemical treatments, so it sits there exposed, without any chemical aid for the consumer to taste it.

Solution: “You could say that it was the king of wines …but a sincere one.” the client said. That reminded us of the Hans Christian Andersen tale “The Emperor’s clothes” where the king sits naked and exposed for everyone to see who he really was. So we decided to name the wine “NAKED KING”. In order to visually present that, we designed the label of the bottle shaped like a crown and embossed the title NAKED KING instead of printing it. We wanted to show that way it would seem like a naked king, without anything on. For the wooden box we silk printed in the front the tale with big type like in a child book and highlighted the words “The king is naked”.
