🔥 "Squeeze Me": We’re looking for the most creative mind to design a retail experience you’ll want to touch.
ivyclip is a young hair accessory brand from Munich. We’re expanding into retail and need someone who can showcase our products in a way that makes customers stop in their tracks and reach out to grab them.
Tasks
Our hair clips are different: They’re flexible, indestructible, and feel incredibly good. Once you’ve held one in your hand, you won’t want to let it go. Our retail presence needs to convey exactly that feeling.
We’re looking for a freelance designer to develop two things for us:
Retail-ready packaging that works on a hook or shelf in a drugstore
A premium look that stands out from the mass market but doesn’t look overdressed
Our USP “Squeeze Me” as a tactile and visual element in the packaging
The customer should be able to feel and press the clip THROUGH the packaging
Freestanding display, approx. 140–160 cm, compact footprint (max. 40 × 40 cm)
6–12 SKUs (various clip models and colors)
Integrated tester zone: Clips to touch, press, and bend; “Squeeze Me” as the central call-to-action
Tool-free assembly/disassembly (store staff set it up themselves)
Must be refillable and durable What matters to us
“Squeeze Me” is the centerpiece. Everything revolves around the desire to touch our clips and experience their flexibility. This must be evident in both the packaging AND the display.
Premium, yet accessible. We’re not a luxury brand, but we’re not a mass-market product either. Think: Aesop meets Glossier meets the dm shelf.
Understand retail reality. You know what a drugstore looks like, how the light falls, how little space there is, and how 2 seconds can decide whether someone buys or walks away. What we expect from you
Concept development: ideas, sketches, mood boards
3D renderings (photorealistic, print-ready for our pitch deck)
Packaging designs as print-ready files
You think in terms of experiences, not just pretty pictures Qualifications
Experience with packaging design and/or retail display/POS design
Portfolio featuring beauty, fashion, lifestyle, or FMCG projects
Proficiency with 3D tools (Blender, KeyShot, Cinema 4D, etc.) and packaging software (Illustrator, InDesign)
Ideally, experience with the German retail sector (drugstores, food retail)
