Book 01
Bigger Smaller
A board book that takes you from the smallest to the largest in eight steps, then back again.
Eight square pages, each a little bigger than the last: atom, cell, eye, Earth, sun, solar system, galaxy, universe. Every page is a single circle. Flip it over and travel back down.
Book 02
The Book with the Ball in it.
One ball, endless imagination.
Eight square pages, each a little bigger than the last: atom, cell, eye, Earth, sun, solar system, galaxy, universe. Every page is a single circle. Flip it over and travel back down.
Book 03
My Tool Box
Essential tools for curious minds.
Around ten cards, each with a working tool like a ruler, magnifier, level, compass, or thermometer, plus a few words on how to use it. Essential tools for curious minds, ages 4 to 7.
See’s Candies
Breathe new life into a beloved brand.
What if See’s became even more itself? A name distilled to it’s essence, a gently refined identity, and a fresh expression of everything people have loved for generations. Not a reinvention but a natural evolution.
Capsule
Make every delivery count.
Transform hand-delivery into a memorable brand moment. A bolder identity, distinctive packaging, and thoughtful messaging make each interaction intentional—building recognition and loyalty over time.
The whole picture
We consider every part of a brand, from identity and messaging to campaigns and products. We distill each part to its essence so everything works on its own and even better together.
