The YSL Beauté Advent Calendar, a luxurious gift box for the holidays
For the 2024 holiday season, YSL Beauté is offering a limited edition of its Advent calendar, designed by Paris-based agency Pure Trade with an eco-responsible approach. It contains 24 of the brand's iconic products, including fragrances, make-up and skincare. The box's design is inspired by couture, with a golden fishnet adorned with edelweiss, reflecting the elegance and savoir-faire of Yves Saint Laurent. The emblematic golden fishnet decoration is produced by cold stamping and complemented by embossing, offering exceptional pattern precision. The doors are adorned with delicate golden petals, while a central plate, inspired by the Edelweiss flower, is offset printed and embossed, without plastic lamination, thus limiting the use of PET.
Printing techniques for "Avis de Tempête" Breton gin labels
Distillerie HEROULT called on the expertise of L'Eperon printing house to enhance the Breton identity of its "Avis de Tempête" gin with top-of-the-range labels. Each printing technique was meticulously chosen to bring out the unique character of this handcrafted spirit. To create a strong visual impact, curved gilding gives a subtle relief, adding a tactile dimension to the labels, while precise laser cutting sculpts shapes reminiscent of the waves of the Breton coastline. Finally, silver gilding adds a luminous, elegant touch, enhancing the product's premium appearance. These finishing choices have been carefully thought out to ensure that each label is a visual tribute to the gin's Breton roots. These labels are the fruit of the expertise of L'Eperon, a French printer based in the heart of the Périgord region, near Périgueux.
The Champagne de Vignerons banner celebrates local artisans with its 2024 campaign
The Champagne de Vignerons collective banner launches its 2024 campaign, featuring Champagne winemakers on national billboards. Orchestrated by agency AustralieGAD, with fashion editor Samuel François and photographer Théo de Gueltzl, the campaign features three winemakers, representative of Champagne's various terroirs, in emblematic settings: vineyards, vats and cellars. The focus is on the sensory profiles of the champagnes âeuros lively, fruity and intense âeuros, and the portraits are depicted as still lifes in the windows of partner wine shops.
The visuals are enriched by outfits made from regional materials (wood, metal, glass), created by fashion artisans, thus integrating the winegrower into his environment. The campaign includes 5,433 national billboard faces, 45 in wine shops and 222 local faces, illustrating the commitment of nearly 4,000 winegrowers and cooperatives in 319 Champagne villages.
Imprimerie du Noisetier (09): L'Artisanat du Marquage à Chaud for Cartier
Since 1920, Imprimerie du Noisetier has been perpetuating hot stamping with artisanal precision. Using Heidelberg presses dating from the 1950s, this Ariege-based company combines the elegance of metallized films with creative papers, sublimated under the effect of heat. This unique know-how, combined with an eco-responsible approach, enables Imprimerie du Noisetier to offer exceptional products. Hot stamping is the result of an alchemy between three elements: a metallized film, a carefully selected creative paper, and a cliché engraved with the visual to be applied. Thanks to precise stamping, the metallized film is embedded in the paper fiber under the effect of heat, fusing the two materials into a unique, striking imprint. The result? A finish that catches the light and enhances every project, offering an unforgettable visual and tactile experience.
