When Hùsmjöd asked us to shape their new visual identity, we stirred together a blend of old Norse character and modern craft. Inspired by runic text styles and the deep tones of Swedish forests, we created a logo and bottle design that feels rooted in tradition but ready for the shelves. The branding leans into rich, earthy colors, just like the mead, and gives each bottle a quiet confidence that stands out without shouting.

​

To launch the brand, we also produced a commercial set in a moody bar, where a cold glass of mead is poured to the soft sound of piano keys. Understated, elegant and atmospheric, just the way Hùsmjöd should feel.
