The agency was commissioned to create a visual identity system and packaging design, including a bespoke vessel for this luxury atelier. Where possible all materials were selected based on their environmental credentials, ranging from the use of post-consumer waste, FSC papers and soy-based inks. The packaging uses a colour palette of dark green and light pastel hues, high quality materials, structures and subtle print finishes to create a tangible sense of both luxury and prestige.

Depot Principal Director Angela Spindler demonstrated an affinity for the unboxing experience from an early age. She kept all of her childhood toys in their original packaging to have a full brand moment every time she decided to play. During her 38 years in the design business, she has notched up almost 75,000 hours of design across four countries: England, Germany, New Zealand and Australia. She founded Depot in 2002, and her meticulous commitment to excellence has never wavered. On top of a busy schedule of client work, Angela has managed to gain a Master’s Degree in design from the College of Fine Art, Sydney. She has guest lectured at design schools both here in Australia and Germany, and was a packaging design moderator for Wintec, New Zealand. For the past 5 years, she has been a Jury Member for the A’Design Awards, Como Italy. In 2022, she was awarded Designer of the Year by the International Association of Designers.
