(About)

Two designers. One studio.

Random Artifacts is a joint venture between two designers with more than a decade each in brand, packaging, and merchandise. We built the studio so brands get one team for everything from strategy to the shelf. [Edit to taste.]

(How we work)

Three things we hold to

Three things we hold to

(01)

Strategy before style.

We start with the category, the shelf, and the customer, so every design choice has a reason behind it.

(02)

Built for production.

Dielines, print specs, and vendor handoff are part of the job, not an afterthought. What we design is what gets made.

(03)

In it for the long run.

Line extensions, new SKUs, and the next drop. We like staying on as the brand grows.
