Project Overview

Kiricann

KiriCann, experts in cannabis medicinal products, approached us to transform their brand and digital presence into something that matched the calibre of their offerings. With deep expertise and a commitment to education and quality, they required a corporate identity and e-commerce platform that would position them as a global leader in the medicinal cannabis space.

The result was a refined, modern brand system and an international e-commerce experience -crowned by a 2021 Loeries Award for Creative Use of Paper for their business card design.

The Brief

KiriCann sought a complete brand refresh. Their objective was clear: develop a modern, simplistic logo and cohesive corporate identity that would reflect their scientific credibility, natural foundations, and international ambitions.

They required:

Cohesive branding across all touchpoints

3

An international
e-commerce website

The Challenge

The cannabis industry sits at the intersection of wellness, science, and regulation. KiriCann needed to appear credible and clinical, while still honouring the natural origins of their products.

The challenge was to:
  • Avoid overused cannabis design tropes
  • Balance scientific authority with botanical authenticity
  • Create a premium aesthetic in a rapidly evolving market
  • Build trust in an industry where education is critical
The brand needed to feel sophisticated, responsible, and globally relevant.

Our Solution

We began with a comprehensive discovery phase to understand KiriCann’s mission, history, and long-term ambitions.

1

A Monochromatic Foundation with Purposeful Accents

We crafted a modern, monochromatic identity system that felt clinical, confident, and refined. Strategic colour accents were introduced selectively to highlight product ranges and botanical elements, ensuring the brand remained elegant while visually dynamic.

The balance between natural and scientific cues created a distinctive brand language that felt both trustworthy and progressive.

2

Award-Winning Print Design

KiriCann’s business cards were designed to reflect tactile sophistication and material intention. The creative use of paper elevated a simple brand touchpoint into a statement piece — earning KiriCann the 2021 Loeries Award for Creative Use of Paper.

3

International E-Commerce Experience

We designed and developed a user-centric e-commerce platform that translated their new identity into a seamless digital experience.

The site was built to:

  • Showcase products clearly and professionally
  • Support international scalability
  • Deliver intuitive navigation
  • Reinforce trust through structured, informative content

Clean layouts and confident typography ensured the brand felt premium and globally competitive.

4

Cannabis Expo Branding

For the 2019 Cannabis Expo, we extended the brand across exhibition materials, ensuring a cohesive presence that stood out within a crowded marketplace. The booth design, print collateral, and visual assets worked together to reinforce credibility and attract engagement.

Why We Loved This Project

KiriCann allowed us to explore the delicate balance between nature and science — between botanical authenticity and clinical precision.

It was a project rooted in purpose, education, and innovation. Winning a Loeries Award for the creative execution made it even more special, but the real reward was seeing a brand step confidently into its global potential.
