WORK/ PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Appellation is a Dubai-based aromatherapy brand rooted in the art of scent and aromachology, designed to bring balance, clarity, and calm to everyday life. For the brand’s relaunch, we developed a refined, premium packaging system with sustainability embedded throughout. Inspired by Czech Art Deco geometry and the philosophy of Japanese minimalism, the design introduces a series-based system with distinct motifs for Calm, Focus, Single Origins, and Limited Editions. Labels were replaced with silk-printed typography on biophotonic glass bottles to reduce waste, paired with FSC-certified, 100% recycled paper, subtle debossing, gold accents, and hidden interior patterns that turn each product into a quiet ritual of discovery.
