The Half & Half — Celebration Packet was developed as a reusable envelope system. To enable this possibility, the use of adhesive was intentionally omitted during the design process. This omission required a rethinking of how a traditional envelope is assembled.
The act of assembling implies the coming together of different parts. As such, the perception of the envelope shifts – from a singular, unified form to one composed of multiple parts.
We sliced the original form into halves, breaking it into components, and introduced a weaving-style interlocking mechanism that allows the parts to assemble themselves while simultaneously sealing the packet once formed.
Using parts as a method of assembly opens up the possibility for the two halves to be made from different materials, further introducing opportunities for customisation and variation.
Its ability to be formed and taken apart allows users to mix and match their preferred combinations, as well as explore new variations that we will be releasing periodically. Perfect for housing money, a note card, or anything that fits.
Available as a set of 4 or 8.
