Collector is a special issue of COLORS Magazine dedicated to people who regroup and catalog objects linked to a theme. For the 20th anniversary of COLORS, Collector celebrates the diversity of cultures, by bringing a contemporary vision of collecting through a selection of products from different media, such as graphic design, industrial design, sound and even nature. Inspired by the way collectors preserve their items and in order to emphasize the fact that this issue is a real ‘Special Edition’, the magazine came in bubble wrap envelopes with metallic stickers.
To celebrate the launch of the Collector issue, we designed a series of gallery spaces in select locations across Europe, highlighting some of the issue's photography in a gallery setting, as well as curated exhibits of collectible items. To announce these events, we put together poster mailers, stickers, and postcard packs to build awareness and tease out some of the content.
