Coca-Cola

Coca-Cola

We at 2&3 have followed the Coca-Cola ‘explosion’poster campaign and always admired the variety and styles applied to the same iconic layout, however we haven’t ever seen one which use the paper quilling style and thought it an obvious one which would really work well

So we made one, and here it is…

Kraft Foods

Kraft Foods

All the way from Northfield, Illinois, Kraft foods asked us to create an artwork containing many of their most successful brands including Toblerone, Oreo cookies and of course Cadbury’s Chocolate. The challenge was making yellow, beige and brown foodstuffs look… nice!

They were happy and so were we.
