The Deep Dive
Overview
Resort World Sentosa contacted us after discovering Re-store by <insert how they found us if you know>. The team were looking for a local business to help them with their Christmas Gifting for employees, but wanted to take a sustainable approach instead of contributing more to waste.
Through collaboration with Re-store, Resort World Sentosa was able to produce the perfect Chrismtas gifts, reduce business waste sustainably, raise awareness of upcycling and sustainability, and complete their Christmas Gifting initiative on budget and on time.
Design & Production
We worked with the RWS team to brainstorm multiple gifting ideas that were appropriate for the type of material being upcycled and with the timeline of the project. After discussion and customisation, the team setted on two designs: key fobs and coasters.
To complete the project in the quantities required, we created 3,250 key fobs and 3250 coasters. Both designs were customised to the collaboration and handmade but our seamstresses.
Timeline
The project was confirmed in early September 2023 and the total project, including design, prototyping, and delivery was completed on 6 December 2023, leaving ample time for packing and distribution to employees.
Result
We delivered all items on time and within budget, allowing the RWS team to focus on other business initiatives from September to December, and then celebrate Christmas with their employees.
