Two colours, and nothing else.
DHL's New Year set for employees, 1,800 of them in 2021: recycled-paper notepads, a plantable stationery tube and a bottle, every piece adapted in the yellow and red that nobody mistakes for anyone else's. Later, the same two colours went into a lit moss frame for the office.

Brand colour is a material.
Kraft and recycled paper are brown. Most eco kits stay brown and let a logo do the work. DHL's colours are too strong for that. So the tube was wrapped in yellow, the bottle finished in black with the red mark, and the notepads kept kraft so the yellow had something to sit against.
The frame came after. Same two colours, this time a sea of moss under a yellow sky, lit from inside.
Keep the brown where it helps the yellow.
The pieces, in your colours.
More work, made for clients.
