Amazing to see our work for The Warehouse published on Dieline this morning. It is the go-to global packaging design platform where designers and industry professionals can be inspired by the latest creative and effective work that’s made a difference. Today is a Good One.
Good One’s #packaging, designed by New Zealand-based Special Design, uses vibrant color-blocking and playful #typography to create a welcoming and approachable #aesthetic. The design simple, clean, bold, and colorful while being designed to feel inclusive for all. Subscribe to read more >>> https://lnkd.in/eG__dXp7

Tourism New Zealand has launched a new campaign shining a light on Aotearoa New Zealand’s unique stargazing experiences and world class cuisine to entice potential visitors year-round. The activity supports TNZ’s new strategy to grow year-round tourism and encourage off-peak visitation. Underneath a billion stars at Kura Tawhiti, the foothills of the Southern Alps, the campaign content features a pop-up restaurant called Pou-o-Kai where media, tastemakers and social media advocates from TNZ’s key markets gathered to experience some of New Zealand’s best cuisine, in a friendly nod to Michelin since New Zealand doesn't have a Guide. The activity includes stargazing and cuisine experiences from across the country as well as a comprehensive suite of trade training resources focused on growing off-peak visitation for travel agents, and content on TNZ’s social media and newzealand.com which potential travellers use to plan their trip.

We've worked with our friends at Kiwibank to launch the inaugural Kiwibank State of Savings Index to document Kiwi attitudes to savings, and our ability to cover expenses. It revealed that a third of New Zealanders would struggle to cover an unexpected bill of $500 without borrowing, selling something or putting it on a credit card. That's why Kiwibank has invested so heavily in tools, resources and products to help encourage better savings behaviour - such as 'Good Tracker' and the launch of 'Thrive HQ'. The story picked up blanket coverage, have a read of the article below to find out more 👇 https://lnkd.in/gh3GUuMf
