Happy Wrapping

Role: Designer
Type: Illustration

During my internship at Happy F&B I helped designing the gift paper for Christmas ‘09.
The concept was “The Little City Architect” and invites everyone to be creative with their gift wrapping. We produced three sets of textures (wrapping paper) and a set of stickers so that it’s possible to create and design small architectorial buildings. The stickers had details in gold foil and UV gloss.

This was a collaboration with Viktor Waldås, Elistabeth Fischer and Linus N. Bertholdsson
