As a digital-only brand, the packaging needed to be sustainable, easy to return, water resistant, simple and elegant.

Excess only
How can I design an elegant & water resistant packaging without using plastic was one of the challenges I faced. With extensive research, I managed to find new sustainable approaches to replace plastic.

The fashion project
Our social media platform allows members to interact, comment, encourage each other & track the difference they (and the community) are making.
Nora Craig
French graphic designer, specialised in branding and packaging design.
For my first project, I branded and created a sustainable packaging for an eco-luxury clothing brand, inspired by Parisian style, called Excess Only. My concept was built around quality and sustainability integrating a confident & discrete luxury communication attitude and a cool tone of voice. My second project focused on inspiring behavioural changes towards a sustainable lifestyle, among 15-25 year old's. We surveyed 218 young people, and discovered that: 89% are interested in learning how to assess fabric quality for longer lasting clothes, 68% have damaged their clothes after a wash, and 41% don’t know how to sew. The Fashion Project is a community designed to curb the environmental impacts of fast fashion via four workshops held weekly locally and a high social media presence for support.

Experience
Design Intern at Team Créatif, in Paris from July 2016 to September 2016. I was part of the 3D department, I participated in designing new containers for the launch of products for Nutella under the snacks & drinks category. Working on my own project required a certain level of managerial skills and decision-making that if not met, would have affected deadlines of projects.
