Branding

My Friend Yarn is a swedish mother & daughter collaboration that make knitted cushions with a sense of personality. The branding needed to be sophisticated and warm plus simple enough to hold all the cushion designs without stealing attention from them.
 

Stamp

The stamp is used for tags and  when there is a need to brand further.
 

Tags

The raw texture of the recycled cardboard looks great with the stamp.
 

Woven Label

The woven, grey label works well with all the cushions.
 

Art Direction

In the art direction for the product shots the goal was to was to subtly reference Sweden without being cheesy. It was achieved through shooting in front of a red barn. The red paint and other surfaces worked perfectly with the cushions and really brought out their colours. 

 

 

Cushions

The cushions are all inspired by Swedish Flora & Fauna. They are modern, graphic and handmade using traditional techniques and materials.
