We’re proud that the GIO jury rewarded two of our designs with a GIO Award 2021 (Dutch equivalent for Excellent Industrial Design): the brand-new SPSC bag for PostNL and Vacu Vin‘s Flexible Wine Cooler Artico. We enjoyed collaborating with our clients on both projects, facing quite different challenges. Admire our GIO 2021 award-winning designs LIVE at the GIO exhibition @ Dutch Design Week (DDW) from October 16th – 24th, 2021.

For PostNL, we designed one of the key elements for their brand-new robotized Small Parcels Sorting Centre: the SPSC bag. It’s a smart parcel bag with a unique, flexible, two-step volume. User-centered design for maximal logistical results!

The Vacu Vin Flexible Wine Cooler Artico is a flexible, active cooler for both wine and champagne. The active cooling technique chills drinks quickly and keeps them cool until the last sip. We created a neoprene sleeve with a vegan leather strip that gives the cooler an iconic, premium appearance.  

Congrats to the PostNL and Vacu Vin teams, and thanks for a great collaboration on these projects!
