Concept Development: Keywords and Names Collection

A well-defined concept and branding are essential for any successful collection. We work closely with the Turkish company Arkum to develop the keywords and names that capture the essence of each collection. By aligning the concept with emerging trends and the target market, we create a strong and cohesive narrative that resonates with customers.

Visuals and Catalog Design

To effectively showcase the knit collection, we pay careful attention to the visual elements and catalog design. The Meidea Team studies the Catalogue and realizes the 3D mockup and designs the layout by including original photographies from Meidea archive, color palettes and concepts. Furthermore the team supplies graphics and indications to be shared to the print house for the final realization. The photos and storytelling created capture the essence of the collection and highlight its unique features and conveys the brand’s identity through captivating visuals.
