Frequently Asked Questions

Answers, before
you have to ask.

Scope, pricing logic, timelines and production questions — collected from the calls we have every week.

General

Working together

Fill in the request form. We reply within one business day and arrange a 30-minute call, after which you receive a written proposal with scope, timeline and budget.
Yes. We work fully remotely with many clients, shipping prototypes and presenting online.
Typically 50% at kick-off and 50% on delivery; milestone-based plans for longer projects.
Two rounds on the selected direction are standard; direction changes are scoped separately.
On full payment, all rights to the approved designs transfer to you, including source files.
Subject to availability, with an expedite fee and a simplified scope.
Box Design

Box Design

We design both. Most agencies place artwork onto a ready-made die-line; we build the structure, opening mechanism, locking system and durability from scratch. Structural design can also be commissioned on its own.
Yes. We deliver the die-line as vectors with separated layers (cut, fold, glue, bleed) in AI, PDF and DXF formats.
Yes. We produce a 1:1 physical mock-up before approval and test folding, locking, product fit and shelf stance.
Lock bottom, crash-lock, tray and lid, sleeve/drawer, rigid magnetic, carry handle, window, display-ready and fully bespoke die-cut forms.
Surface-only design takes 10–15 business days. With structural design and prototyping it is 3–5 weeks.
We can manage printer selection and press supervision; the print invoice comes directly from the printer. You may also take only the production files.
Packaging Design

Packaging Design

Pricing depends on variant count, whether structural design is needed, and photography or illustration production.
If the brand is already recognised, an evolutionary restyle usually works better. If you are lost in the category or repositioning, a full redesign is needed.
We lay out mandatory information areas, minimum type sizes, allergen emphasis and nutrition tables at the design stage. Final legal approval remains with the producer.
Yes: mono-material structures, recycled board, die-cut alternatives to plastic windows, reduced ink coverage and correct recycling symbols.
Photography is a separate line item but we provide art direction, either with our studios or yours.
Brand Identity Design

Brand Identity Design

Yes. However, logos delivered alone tend to be used inconsistently within months; we recommend at least a compact identity package.
We present three distinct directions. Two rounds of revision on the selected route are standard.
Registration is handled by trademark attorneys; we refer you and run preliminary similarity checks during design.
Logo rules and variations, clear space, colour system, typography, iconography, photography, packaging applications and misuse examples — typically 40–70 pages.
Yes. Keeping logo recognition while renewing colour, type, graphic language and applications is a common and effective route.
Brand Strategy & Consultancy

Brand Strategy & Consultancy

Three to six weeks depending on scope.
Yes, strategy is delivered as a standalone document you can use with any agency.
Catalogue & Print

Catalogue & Print

A fixed fee for concept and template development plus a per-page layout rate, with volume tiers.
You provide product data and technical tables; copywriting can be added as a separate item.
Digital Design & Advertising

Digital Design & Advertising

Yes, monthly retainers are available, or a one-off template system your team can run.
We design the UI and can deliver end to end with our development partners.
