The challenge is to turn this ordinary even neglected hygiene care, into a true refined object in terms of both appearance and fragrance. Its acquisition becomes a “coup de coeur”, an emblematic gift, declined in 12 scents. The rigid box allows the discovery of the soap and becomes a full-blown case. The product was thought to be customizable: in addition to the possibility of engraving it with the client’s initials, the agency designed a set of labels to be affixed during the sale, on the front panel of the box. Around forty iconographies were developed. Design Ramdane Touhami for Art Recherche Industrie.

The Officine’s toothbrushes are luxurious and timeless. Our agency has focused its research on a material with a reliable carbon and ecological footprint: acetate.Their natural material, a noble plastic made of cellulose invented in France in the 19th century, has the necessary robustness to be engraved and gilded by hand in the boutique (customization). The brushes, made of silk threads or badger hair, ensure two levels of hardness. Design Ramdane Touhami for Art Recherche Industrie.

Development of a scented candle inspired by the universe of the brand Moncler.
