NECTAR is a swedish candy cart that came to me with some initial branding that they wanted expanded, refined, and refreshed! We did 2 design days back-to-back, starting with the brand refresh. Day one, I updated their logo, tweaked the color palette to be more usable, and updated the fonts to be more elevated and less cutesy. I drew some custom swedish candy illustrations, created hand-drawn stickers, and brand patterns! Day 2, I focused on designing on the packaging for the bags, cartons, and the cart itself!

Versatile, Recognizable, and Iconic.

For the candy cart design, Nectar told me they plan to cater popups & events ranging from casual to very formal. For this reason, I knew I had to make the cart easy to recognize, and cute enough to make people want to snap a picture with it—but it had to have some sophisticated, cleaner elements so it wouldn't clash with different locations.
