Multi-Purpose Rigid Book Packaging
An unusual book packaging that transforms itself into a frame — with its’ natural cork detail, makes Bespoke Book deserve a place in & out of the bookshelf.
The elegant and minimal look of the exterior of packaging, gently interrupted by subtle debossed details and natural crafted cork material. Upon opening, the Bespoke Book Packaging reveals its custom-crafted natural cork frame and branded blue color while keeping focus on the main product, Bespoke Book.

Online Cannabis Platform Branding
The “findwxxd” is a digital platform where people search, discover, and share marijuana businesses in the USA. We designed their logo by transforming Helvetica to their logotype with minor customizations and using illustrated cannabis sativa leaf as their logomark. The positioning of their logomark is inspired by an asterisk(*), which refers to findwxxd’s network.
An asterisk (*) is a typographical symbol that resembles the shape of a star. Depictions of the asterisk vary according to font and usage. Still, the most common variants contain five points (san-serif), six points (serif), and eight points (hand-written). Its most common use is to call out a footnote.

Branding for Turkish singer and his music album
Bertan Karaimer recorded a new cover album, “EskiYeni”. The meaning of the album is “Old New” in Turkish. The reason this name was chosen is that it was a cover album that reproduced the 6 old songs of him. Which also affects the design decision of using the six corners of the hexagon shape and combines two different font styles and combined them in one.
By using old serif font “Bodoni” for “eski” and combining it with modern sans-serif “Helvetica” for “yeni”, the purpose was to reproduce the same feeling as the album. Furthermore, the six corners of the hexagon shape, which is the main bold element, represent the total number of the songs in the album.

Candle Packaging and Manufacturing

Balsamic Vinegar Bottle and Label
“Kangaburra” was a company based in Australia that produces balsamic vinegar in 2018. They were using 100% Australian ingredients and their product was made especially as a complement of sala dressing, seafood, pork, and poultry dishes. The main ingredient of their product who differentiate them among their competitors is “golden citrus”. This unique ingredient is also the one that gives the bright yellow color of the product.
The main inspiration of the label design is a citrus peel. Therefore, as a reference to peel, the label is designed as a wrapped ribbon to highlight the unique ingredient of golden citrus indirectly.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the owner of Bertan Karaimer Music, a music project.
What challenge were you trying to address with Velvele?
I needed someone to design album covers and other materials.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They designed the album covers for Spotify and other digital platforms. They also created booklets. I explained what I needed, but I didn’t provide sketches. They came back with 16 alternatives to choose from. We narrowed it down to three of them. We walked through them together to decide which one would have the greatest impact.
What is the team composition?
I interacted with one person.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together from April-May 2019.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
They were very helpful. I was easily able to find what I wanted and the project was easier than I anticipated. We even ended up using their designs for Instagram Ads. The album was able to generate a significant number of views on YouTube as well.
How did Velvele perform from a project management standpoint?
Project management was flexible. They were kind enough to send some sketches through WhatsApp before sending detailed PDFs. Later on, I needed some of the material in different shapes and formats for different platforms. They provided those quickly. Communication was good.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They clearly understood what I wanted from the start. I didn’t provide them with sketches, but I explained the story and ideas. Those ideas were reflected in the visuals they produced.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, they did an exceptional job.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
You can trust them. Let them do the work from scratch. You’ll be satisfied with their work.

Please describe your company and your position there.
We are a luxury candle company that sells around the world. I am the Founder of this company.
For what projects/services did your company hire Velvele?
Creating a new label design for our boxes. Including full prototyping and engineering for maximum effect and efficiency based on the criteria we set forth. After being approached by a major retailer we were asked to design a three pack of our candles. Velvele came in and designed an amazing product to spec, including full computer-aided design (CAD) engineering, manufacturing support, and custom design.
What were your goals for this project?
To create an aesthetically impactful and memorable product. Our brand needed to be remembered and Velvele helped us achieve that.
How did you select this vendor?
Thru a search online. After an extensive interview process, design goals and plans were laid out. Once previous work was shown we chose them.
Describe the project in detail.
The objective was to design packaging boxes that were memorable. Velvele was very communicative during the process with direct screen shares and new ideas. The reason they excelled was the amount of time and care they put into not only executing our ideas and vision but proposing new ones based on their skillset. Everything was done in an efficient and timely fashion.
What was the team composition?
There were two people assigned and they were extremely attentive. This was great because each person knew exactly what the other person was doing and gave their input easier than dealing with a larger team.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Due to the success of the first packaging box being created by Velvele, we were able to secure a major retailer and acclaim from customers instantaneously. Which led us to return and have them design our next packaging idea. That also garnered so much attention that other companies were asking us who we used.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Everyone was effective in communicating including weekly updates and screen shares to discuss over the phone.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their vast amount of knowledge, design ideas, and forward thinking nature stood out. Extremely communicative and not afraid to speak up about their ideas. Velvele was accommodating in every possible way. Every project was treated as if it was one of their own.
Are there any areas for improvement?
None.
The client was happy with Velvele’s work and was able to use the designs in Instagram ads. The team easily understood the client’s vision and provided several options for the client to choose from. They were flexible and organized.
