In the chaos of life, we often forget who we are and what the calling of our soul is. Sometimes all we need to do is, take a step back and introspect. This is exactly what fuelled our latest project ‘Home’ for Royal Enfield - it makes us ponder about the very nature of our existence, and question if we are missing a point when we say we need to go the distance. Maybe sometimes going forward could also mean taking a step back - to our roots.

A new sea food brand was created and put on the shelves of supermarkets in Anapa, a coastal city. However, instead of actual food there was a rubbish, caught in the sea off the coast in Anapa. A sea cocktail of tins, Black sea mix of plastic bottles, cigarette stubs as sea bulls and a seafood salad with plastic bags – all this could be found on the shelves in shops during the campaign which ended with a city-wide community work day. The design of the package was created using the most frequent rubbish found in sea – plastic bottles, cups and bags, cigarette stubs and tins. This rubbish was put through a linocut after being colored with typographic colors. Final images were photoshopped and used in the packaging.

While many period stigmas and misconceptions stem from centuries of baseless taboos and lack of education, even women in developed countries with adequate education systems feel shame and an inability to talk about periods. This proves that period shaming transcends culture and society. Unfortunately, it is universal. Because of this, issues associated with menstruation such as period poverty exist with its victims unable to speak out and seek help. We were tasked with undoing period stigmas and change the way the world talks about them. Connecting Periods encourages period positive language amongst people who were already trying to become more effective and impactful communicators by partnering with Grammarly. The millions of daily Grammarly users make mistakes such as misusing periods or forgetting them altogether. We saw that as an opportunity to raise awareness on societal shaming of periods, encourage period positive language, and literally position periods as a normal topic of discussion that doesn’t need to be euphemized or hidden.
