THINKLS
LTD.
A giftware business that has been involved in the drinks and food industry since 2017. Thinkls Ltd. has always been about making gifts special and enhancing the retail space for our customers at the same time. Research from visiting independent retailers all across the UK suggested that finding the right giftware and the appropriate space to sell it on display proved challenging. Clientele of independent retailers in food and drink, off licences and breweries have adored the unique takes on giftware ranges: which have also been shaped and updated around the customer and their feedback, alongside supplying a range of point of sale solutions.
In a team of 2, my input involved the development of all visual products and services. Branding, art direction, product ranges, advertisement, the online platform for the business have seen my creative input. As the business grew, I was also introduced to the formal aspects of the company; joining the business owner in trade shows & exhibitions; meetings with investors and clients and liaising with the companies that deal with production too.

GIFTWARE
RANGES
The core ranges produced consist of gifting bags, gift tags, greetings cards, cork coasters and fridge magnets. The vision from the start was to make giftware ranges, products and points of sale that cover three core areas:
Make sense as a product on their own towards the consumer who is in the store buying a gift.
Are part of larger collections that retailers & local business see as an attractive opportunity in their retail space for their wares.
Which can be presented neatly into our P.O.S displays that save space and are also easily visible.
ARTWORK
& BRANDING
Another core component of the work I also undertook at Thinkls ltd. was creating the artwork and final designs for all the front end products. The artwork created was predominantly done piece by piece; where I created the elements that would then be composed to make surface pattern designs. This also included the branding and formal design of corporate stationery; and the brands online platform thorugh email campaigns and its online store.
