About project

For the National Theatre in Zagreb, we developed a bespoke collection of paper gift bags designed to extend and enrich the institution’s visual identity beyond its core promotional materials. Rather than treating packaging as a purely functional object, we approached it as an integral part of the brand experience: one that reflects the theatre’s cultural significance, artistic excellence, and timeless sophistication. 

The collection consists of two distinct yet complementary designs, each communicating a different aspect of the theatre’s personality. The first embraces understated elegance through the use of premium black Pergraphica paper, whose rich texture immediately conveys quality and refinement. A three-dimensional logotype, finished with matte silver hot foil, creates a subtle play of light and shadow, adding depth without overpowering the composition. The restrained palette and tactile materials evoke a sense of quiet luxury, making the bag feel as carefully crafted as the performances it represents.

HNK paper bags

The collection consists of two distinct yet complementary designs, each communicating a different aspect of the theatre's personality. The first embraces understated elegance through the use of premium black Pergraphica paper, whose rich texture immediately conveys quality and refinement. A three-dimensional logotype, finished with matte silver hot foil, creates a subtle play of light and shadow, adding depth without overpowering the composition. The restrained palette and tactile materials evoke a sense of quiet luxury, making the bag feel as carefully crafted as the performances it represents. 

In contrast, the second design offers a bold visual statement. Featuring expressive printed graphics enhanced with gold foil accents, it captures attention while maintaining a sense of sophistication. The dynamic composition transforms the gift bag into a memorable object that stands out long after an event has ended, reinforcing the theatre's identity through striking visual storytelling. 

Thoughtfully designed branded materials have the power to communicate far more than information. They create atmosphere, evoke emotion, and strengthen the connection between an institution and its audience. When every detail, from paper selection to finishing techniques, is considered with intention, even the simplest promotional item becomes a meaningful extension of the brand. 

Ovaj magnet osmišljen je kao mali podsjetnik na posebnu atmosferu Zagreb Classica – toplih ljetnih večeri ispunjenih glazbom, druženjem i jedinstvenim doživljajem kulture u srcu grada. Više od promotivnog artikla, magnet je suvenir koji čuva uspomenu na trenutke zbog kojih se publika iz godine u godinu vraća ovom festivalu.Za izradu magneta korišten je digitalni tisak u kombinaciji sa štancanjem, što mu daje prepoznatljiv oblik i uredne, čiste rubove. Završni sloj UV laka daje mu elegantan sjaj i dodatno naglašava detalje dizajna i stvara dojam kvalitete. Rezultat je kvalitetan i upečatljiv suvenir koji vjerno prenosi duh Zagreb Classica.
