Description

I created the artwork for a limited-edition bandana celebrating the 10th anniversary of Göteborg Manufaktur, in collaboration with Göteborg Manufaktur and Kobashi Studio. The design features the back-to-back tigers from the Athletic Champs theme, combined with floral details inspired by the Göteborg Manufaktur logo and ten stars representing ten years. Produced in Japan by a Tokyo-based scarf maker established in 1918, the bandana was printed using a traditional two-colour silk-screen printing process. This project demonstrates how illustration, symbolism, and traditional craftsmanship can come together to create a distinctive and meaningful product through visual storytelling.
