July 22nd - August 22nd, 2023
We are pleased to announce the launch of a competition to design the Christmas wrapping for CIBONE in 2023. The selected design will be used extensively as the Christmas gift wrapping at all three CIBONE stores: CIBONE Omotesando, CIBONE CASE Ginza, and CIBONE Brooklyn. Everyone is welcome to participate, and we eagerly await numerous entries.
Theme: Dear Christmas
Imagine the faces of your loved ones and create something truly special. It's not just about the items themselves, but also the feelings of the creator, the pre-gift-giving meal, the decorated tree in the room, gift boxes, heartfelt letters, and accompanying flowers. To celebrate the special day and cherish the excitement leading up to those precious moments, we present CIBONE's vision of Christmas.
Submission Details:
We accept designs for the Christmas-limited gift wrapping that will be used at CIBONE Tokyo (Omotesando and Ginza) and CIBONE Brooklyn stores in 2023. The final selected design will be directed and designed by CIBONE's designers and used for various purposes, including Christmas message cards, wrapping papers, bags, and website banners.
