We used details of frescoes from Versailles and Villa Borghese to depict a world of natural beauty and the realm of the senses with voluptuous figures and lavish flora. A reference to the remedy which is hidden in nature's trove, without actually using much too apparent and ubiquitous cannabis associations. We aimed at striking the fine balance between overstatement and minimalism.
The overall communication is based on strong connections between images and typography, dominated by chiaroscuro light contrasts, sophisticated typeface and classical symbolism. A visual identity full of indulging elements that playfully tackles the current debates on cannabis culture and policy.
