Hemp is a good plant with a bad reputation. While it is acknowledged that hemp is a versatile plant with many benefits ranging from nutrition to construction, its association with marijuana makes it difficult to be accepted as a mainstream material.
This project aims to change worldwide perceptions of this highly beneficial but hapless product, allowing it to bring so much more value to the world in which we live.
Changing Perceptions of Hemp
Introduction
With Hemp, we have an opportunity to create a new brand; to change perceptions and change the world. A brand that endorses an ethical lifestyle; cutting down on excesses, promoting a cleaner, healthier environment and a better world.
It’s identity would be simplicity, eco-friendliness and awareness. These key points, giving that “feel good” feeling, would be translated into every aspect of the brand.
The markets chosen were Fashion, Body care and Nutrition as Hemp would have the largest impact and widespread use in these markets.
All products will use natural ingredients, are safe and gentle for the person as well as the environment.
