Fantastic Mr. Box x Dog & Spoon

We're thrilled to share our recent collab with the fantastic Dog & Spoon Distillery! 🎉 They're a local Derbyshire distillery known for their premium handcrafted gin, and they needed a packaging solution for their new range of 10cl miniatures.

We were tasked with creating something that was not only effective and economical but also super sustainable, aligning with their commitment to the environment. Plus, it had to look the part, reflecting their cool, modern, and proudly Derbyshire brand identity.

So, we got to work and designed a bespoke carrier that's sturdy, easy to carry, and can securely hold three mini bottles of their delicious gin. It's made from fully recyclable e-flute corrugated cardboard – seriously, it can be recycled up to 25 times! This was chosen for its durability, and premium feel.

And the design features clever little apertures that show off those bottle labels beautifully and make it easy to swap the gins around without any fuss or requirement for additional packaging!

The feedback has been amazing, and sales in Q4 were fantastic! 🚀 This shows that great packaging can be a game-changer for brands.

We're all about creating packaging solutions that help businesses thrive, so if you're looking to elevate your brand with packaging that packs a punch, why not call for a chat!

Steve Tomkins

I've spent over 35 years in graphic and packaging design, production and branding. It started in Liverpool, cutting my teeth on key line and separated artwork before the digital revolution changed the job completely.

From there I became the person studios called for artwork and retouching, before moving into studio consultancy, restructuring and rebuilding teams across the UK. I've always been fairly direct, it's served me well working out what's actually wrong with a project or a team, but it also taught me that people work best when they trust you, not just when they're told what to do. I've carried both into Fantastic Mr. Box, where I'm now co-founder.

If you're weighing up a packaging project and want a straight opinion, get in touch. That much hasn't changed.
