Designing new merch for UC Design
By — Mayank Dhawan, Principal Product Designer
Last month, while preparing for the public launch of UC’s Align Design System or ADS, we had an epiphany.
Why not revamp our merch kit with the new design language?
The timing couldn’t have been better; New design language, new goodies. It seemed like a nice gesture to show our appreciation to the entire tech team.
The brief
Design and produce a set of kickass merch. That’s it.
Oh yeah, one more thing — we only had a week to figure out the scope, designs, and production 🥲
And, that’s what we did. Here’s a snapshot of how it went (and most likely, how it might go for you)
The result
Drumroll?
Notebook
A place to jot down the next set of cool ideas.
Face mask
Safety first, right? How about safety with some style.
T-shirt
Because you gotta have it.
Enamel Pins
A cool (constant) reminder of what Urban Company stands for.
Desk mat
Work in style.
Stickers
Sticking to our guns, 10 times over.
Flash cards
Yes! We designed a custom set of flash cards. All jargons and internal jokes — written in slick-matte-finish-colorful set of cards.
This is our favorite of the lot, by the way.
Bag
A cool bag to hold all the cool swagger.
