Lipa pamti guidebook

This guidebook was the first project we did for Memorial centre in Lipa, still unaware what we were getting ourselves into - and we got ourselves into the story so emotional and full of life among so much death. It was astonishing to see how the war tragedy made people of this small town so connected (although, Lipa is anything but small). And the town and its story got under our skin.  This museum guidebook could be called a picture book for adult...

Goosebumps, please…

Bibliobus

When we put our minds together - as well as our hands - all is possible. Even pushing the big library bus! We fondly remember sitting in a pub with our creative friends from Kombinat, Molekula, Studio Artlan and Manufaktura and deciding to collaborate on a project that will be good for the community. Very soon the choice was made - we will help the Rijeka City Library with its campaign to get funding for the new mobile library. The goal was very clear and ...

Holcim

How to say “Buy local” in a fresher, more interesting way? That was the question that people from Holcim asked when they approached us for the T-shirt design that would promote buying local cement. After considerable brain activity, a series of T-shirt designs was created with well known Croatian phenomena. Printed messages are based on the characteristics of cement and linked verbally with some local sayings in quite an unexpected way. ...

Crikvenica

Crikvenica’s history and culture appear to be some of the best kept secrets in Kvarner, so we wanted to tell its story to the present and future visitors of this small city. Although tourists visit Crikvenica mostly to enjoy the sun, sea and beaches, the town was once a fisherman’s village. It also has a very interesting gastronomic history and nowhere else can you spend the night at an ex-monastery. We illustrated the story of Crikvenica, and those who li...

Elcon Geraetebau

Elcon Geraetebau is the leading CNC manufacturers of high-precision parts in SE Europe and that is precisely why we created the slogan “Measure of precision”. Elcon Geraetebau is Cipmann’s greatest project in terms of diversity of materials created for them. Our primary task was to redesign their identity in the direction of modern and strong company on the global market. We achieved visibility with a very recognizable shade of green, and the logotype is c...

Misho & Robin

Moms being moms, we love to create content for our kids. So when the guys from animation studio Recircle approached us and asked if we would work on the scripts for animated kids TV series Misho & Robin, there was no doubt in our minds. It was a chance to create content for all kids, not only ours. In 30-ish 5-minute episodes we took Misho the cat, Robin the robin and their quirky gang all over the place - over the hills, forests, sea and creeks where ...

Peek+Poke

Designing for the museum of childhood sounds like a dream project. And it was. While we were admiring toys and games of our past, we felt like riding a time machine. So it was only natural to choose the time machine as the concept of the Peek+Poke’s visual identity. That’s why the name of the museum became a colorful time traveling machine and its winding key a recognizable symbol that can be used on its own. Museum’s physical space is divided into section...

3 kantuna

We have renamed “Megi” - a studio for interior design - to “3 kantuna” (or “3 corners”) since it is run by a woman who takes care of all 3 aspects of the interior: the structure, the furniture and the details. In other words, from knocking down walls to choosing tiles and sewing throw pillows. Since 3 kantuna adapts to different types of space, we have created modular visual identity that adapts to every context. Visual elements are black lines borrowed...

Euroway

A small language school from the small town of Kastav approached us with a great wish for visual identity redesign. Line by line, color by color, redesign soon became a completely new design which reflected warmth and Euroway’s unique family atmosphere much better than the previous design. Since the school spices up the classes with various customs and interesting rituals such as drinking afternoon tea or Easter egg hunts, the identity was based on the mot...

Pucko

We celebrated Cipmann’s first birthday - which conveniently coincided with New Year’s holidays - by sending our clients and partners small but loud self-promotion thingie. Snappy was a self-created product which was basically a piece bubble wrap with some practical usage suggestions. It offered 3-in-1 functionality: protection from falling apart, stress relief and killing time. In a snap, we were out of bubbles, and Snappy started a tradition of Cipmann’s ...

Drugi par rukava

Thrilled by Rijeka’s history and disappointed with how little people know about it, we decided to bring Rijeka’s stories closer to city’s youngsters. And we did it in collaboration with Kantoon shop. Since a good story goes a long way, we depicted Rijeka’s history through illustrated stories on T-shirts which immediately draw attention. They combine visual and textual, while design always keeps some historical element adapted to modern visual language.&nbs...

Škulić

What do two Cipmannettes say in a turning workshop? “ Wooow, what a great-looking machine/contraption/tool/...!” Fascinated by the space, details and the filth, we started working on the visual identity. Of course, it all needs to look very professional, but we still wanted to keep it real so we used the photocopy element found in all the blueprints and applied it to the printed materials. Logotype combines a tool and material from the workshop, communicat...

Kantoon shop

How to encourage spreading the word about a really cool shop? Easy! By detachable business cards. A sheet of colorful business cards hung in the shop and invited shoppers to tear one for themselves (after they first studied all color combinations and chose their favorite one). It kept customers shopping longer than expected, and talking to the lovely shopkeeper made the atmosphere even more pleasant. And then shopping for things became shopping for ideas…&...

Mediterra

Mmmmm, honey! We all love to have our trusty homemade products dealer, and when you get the chance to create the name and visual identity for that favorite product, it’s a sweet sweet project. Name “Mediterra” combines Croatian word for honey (med) and Latin word for land (terra), and refers to the geographical origin of the honey: Mediterranean. Since all Mediterra’s products revolve around bees, we put the bee in the center and created a sort of “Vitruvi...

Bela nedeja

How to communicate such a versatile event as the festival of wine, old crafts, handmades, culture, literature, music, souvenirs, art, dance, etc.? Well, to include all these elements into the design, of course! Sounds busy, but so is the festival. The visuals for each annual edition of Bela nedeja are based on many illustrations symbolizing different aspects of the event. Over the years, we added color, but the visual language remained recognizable and tru...
