E3 Design has a long experience of designing products that are to be produced in high volume. Efficient material usage is critical for a cost effective manufacturing solution and our experience allows us to design products to optimise strength with minimun wall section. Consideration of cavitation in tooling, and how the product will be moulded and ejected are critical in the production process.We have significant in-house tool making experience with our Technical Director having started his career by completing a toolmaking apprenticeship and going on to become the Technical Director of a well-known Rapid Tooling and Manufacturing company.We often provide tooling consultancy and advice to our clients outside the actual design projects we are working on. Our approach to product aesthetics and economic material usage, combined with hands-on manufacturing experience and ergonomic design, has led to us working with some of the biggest companies in the world. Around 95% of everything E3d designs actually ends up in manufacture.

The initial brief was to design a new packaging that could stand out and innovate, both industrially and graphically, to make presence in Finland’s wine market for Christmas season.Our goal was to develop something that, without leaving aside it’s functional features —to protect, communicate and facilitate it’s manipulation—, could achieve an important emotionally persuasive role.To accomplish this, we took the concept of haptics and developed solutions that could generate visual surprise and desire of manipulation, in order to trigger the emotional aspect of design.To date, no wine cases made in Chile were fabricated without vertical folds, the reason being that they are necessary for the industrial bonding process. However, we have found a way to leave aside that action: a self locking assembly that is hidden in the diagonal creases of the packaging. A simple solution that makes the production go directly from the die, to the final assembly of the case.Graphically, the solution gathers the symbolic aspects of copper as a representation of Chile and blends it with a geometrical abstraction of snow that lies at the base of the package, which fits elegantly with the Christmas imaginary.In economic terms, despite the elimination of a process, this packaging has a higher cost than a traditional case, but has an efficient enough industrial development to be able to produce thousands of units profitably, and also, it fulfills it’s persuasive function in a fruitful way.According to the vineyard’s data, in Finland all the units were sold within the first five days of the exposition, and the success spread to other markets where the brand has presence, including Chile, which currently has this packaging in the Rosé variation in different gondolas within the country.This project recently won a Chile Diseño award for the category of packaging at the sixth Design Biennial of Chile.

BRINGING BOILING POINT MAGAZINE TO THE BOIL
One of our long term clients (let’s face it, they’re all long term), came to us to help them refresh and update their widely read industry publication, Boiling Point. Very well respected in their market, as well as this magazine Hamworthy provide products, service and support as well as accredited training – they’re considered as one of the best, so we had to deliver.
THE SOLUTION
Using our recently revamped branding toolkit we cleaned down and refreshed the magazine, bumping it up from eight to twelve pages to gain more space to play, as well as bigger, bolder and more modern look in general to bring the magazine up to date with the rest of our brand work. The new edition launched in March this year and we look forward to seeing it go from strength to strength.

Flexible product.Trenzi’s founders needed help creating their product and identity. They initially planned to target fashion retail brands and consumers, with plans to expand to other sectors in the near future.As nothing is certain in the initial stages of a startup, we designed an identity and product that could adapt to different brands and markets. We used subtle warm colors to enrich content and welcome users to share campaigns on social media. Additionally, for simplicity, the application is built on a single code base and works seamlessly in both iOS and Android.Simplifying a robust systemWithin the user interface, we designed simple iconography to succinctly communicate Trenzi’s robust earning methods.Aside from the several reward earning methods, they also have a donations system where users can put reward dollars towards good causes, such as funding classrooms. We used color-coded elements, red for rewards and orange for donations, to delineate between the two actions while keeping them integrated in a single interface.

FÛT 65, a selection of KARUKERA rums was born after a meeting with Luca Gargano. This passionate and imminent rum expert fell under this vintage's spell. KARUKERA rums created its very first piece of collection from this exceptional cask "favoured by a touch of grace" in Gargano’s own words, FÛT 65 is a top-of-the-range bottle produced in only 209 numbered units. LINEA, the designers from the Spirits Valley, was in charge of the creation that features two fundamental values for the brand: the authenticity of the terroir and the unique skills of the cellar master. A selection of noble and authentic material shows this attachment. Thus, the box is in solid oak and lined in natural cork. The medal is a copper and brass alloy. The straps are in leather. And of course, the bottle is made of crystal. The shape of the box is a reminder of the cask when viewed in cross section. Worked as a display, the bottle is sublimated in its centre, like a treasure.

RESTGU™ (Restaurant Staff Guide) is a multi-functional platform created to provide a comprehensive guide for new and experienced restaurant owners, managers and staff with the basic tools, tactics and techniques required to run a successful restaurant.
Challenge
RESTGU™ is a new solution for the restaurant business that provides online education, a test and certification. We did research and a 360º marketing analysis before developing the brand strategy for positioning of a new product in the market. The research showed a number of potential competitors in the online restaurant training industry. Our challenge was to create a brand positioning, marketing strategy and brand model that would allow RESTGU™ to stand out with its innovative approach in the market of educational products. The two RESTGU™ digital platforms — RESTGU™ Guide and RESTGU™ Life Style — needed to complement each other in providing all necessary tools for convenient and productive learning for achieving the RESTGU™ certification.
Solution
Based on market research, we developed a brand positioning strategy that focused on target audiences: restaurant managers/owners and restaurant staff and those who wanted to open their own restaurant. “Your Personal Assistant” and “Your Personal Coach” were the two strategies implemented in the marketing plan to represent RESTGU™ as a comprehensive online educational solution. To give the product a personal touch, we created a corporate hero RESTGU™— a cute robot who became the brand identification and communicator of the marketing messages. We developed a corporate style that included logo design, a RESTGU™ Identity Design Guide, posters and brochure design, posters, business cards and a full set of RESTGU™ souvenirs, including a RESTGU™ Certificate design and two websites: www.restgu.com and www.restguls.com.

525 America has been creating high quality, contemporary women’s knitwear since 1983. With roots in Brooklyn, they have a rich history anchored to 7th Avenue. Our challenge was to re-design a contemporary brand and website that would live within a competitive landscape and also appeal to a younger audience while still retaining interest from their core demographic.Through brand workshops with the senior stakeholders, we helped define the brand story and identified and researched the competition through perceptual mapping of brands in the same space. Under the theme ‘Born in Brooklyn,’ we honed in on characteristics and attributes around the brand. The result is a custom-crafted typographic mark and minimal identity reflective of an established brand that is markedly New York. We created a flexible grid system to be used across all collateral. Looking at the history of New York itself for typographic inspiration, we pulled references from vintage billboards, street signs, and store-fronts. A fully responsive eCommerce site was developed for all devices, ensuring all customers receive the same quality experience online, wherever they are.

Family-owned and operated since 1954, Air Comfort is an HVAC and Refrigeration company that provides customized solutions in the residential, commercial, industrial and marine sectors. Founded on the values of quality, integrity, commitment and safety, Air Comfort delivers excellence in everything from custom fabrication to service and installation. As the Southeast Texas based company began to grow into extended markets, the brand needed to reflect the level of professionalism and expertise of the business.
The brand refresh began, as most do, with the logo. Subtle adjustments to color, shape and typography brought the logo set up to date while maintaining the equity of the original mark. From there came brand extensions, most notably the van wraps. As a primary symbol of their service and residential sectors, the vans needed to communicate the brand’s new identity and serve as a moving advertisement while out on the job.

The Most Comprehensive Celiac Disease And Gluten-related Disorders Resource Online
CeliacNow was developed at BIDMC to enhance the health and well-being of children & adults with celiac disease and other gluten-related disorders through excellence in medical care, education, and research.
As described by the team at BIDMC, “Our logo shows the villi (lining) of the small intestine growing taller (from left to right) as they heal on the gluten free diet. Villi exposed to gluten are shortened or flattened in undiagnosed celiac disease. As they respond to the gluten-free diet, they begin to recover, becoming taller and better able to absorb food once again.” In addition to designing the CeliacNow logo, the Spin350 team also developed a comprehensive website within the BIDMC.org infrastructure.

The beauty industry is full of promises and expectations. And so are we. We promise not to create work that's a feel-bad reminder of what most women are not, and we expect women to be savvy and capable of understanding the way what they put on their bodies works. For Exuviance, a high-end Johnson & Johnson brand, we created a campaign that successfully invigorated three products with gorgeous visuals that focused purely on the product and its attributes, along with language that relied heavily on wit and was loaded with hardcore science - never dumbed down, never inflated.
The work paid off. Results have exceeded expectations and eight more executions are in the works.

Walkable, wearable billboards provide brand awareness for years to comeEXECUTIVE SUMMARY


SketchUp, formerly Google SketchUp, is a 3D modeling computer program which offers a wide range of drawing applications such as building architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, civil and mechanical engineering, film, and video game design. Absolutely thrilled with socks we produced for them, SketchUp subsequently invited us to pitch on 13 different products for SketchUp Basecamp 2018, a biennial event. We won each separate product as part of the bid and proudly look forward to continuing our relationship with this inspiring brand.




CHALLENGES




It was important to SketchUp that their custom branded apparel and promotional goods partner not only understood, but could deliver upon their needs. Having recently produced high quality and cost competitive branded socks for SketchUp, we had built a customer service relationship they could confidently place faith in. However, with the scope of products including stickers, sunglasses, water bottles, flash drives, towels, t-shirts and dry bags, we were keen to continue to prove our ability.
As always, our approach started with discovery; listening to our client and what their needs were. Because SketchUp planned to order considerable quantities of each item, and the difference in cents per unit could add up to thousands saved on the overall budget, it was key to maintain high quality items. This became the focus of the project.
