WallpaperSTORE*

Kirsty Carter

We were commissioned by Wallpaper* magazine to design the packaging range for their online shop, WallpaperSTORE*. The range needed to be suitable for packaging everything from letter openers to large-scale pieces of furniture. The geometric pattern that appears across the packaging range is derived from the Wallpaper* asterisk. This was used throughout the packaging – screen printed onto boxes, bags, tissue and folders, and printed onto tape.
