Create a set of scented candles for Homo Sapiens, a Chinese brand of luxury household goods that believes in bringing traditional handmade skills back to the modern day.Consumer Insight:

Solution:

Get back to our roots. Using the essence of the brand to create a positive behavioural change in the way we spend our spare time. Create a moment, that can become a ritual, “Always on” becomes “Sometimes off”. The ancient tradition of storytelling around the tribal fire brought people together. In a modern version, we invite consumers to create a spark in the ancient way, light the flame and tell the tale through our set of storybooks.
