History of Hats is a limited-edition collector’s box exploring the history and defining traits of classic headwear. The project centers on a cohesive packaging and visual system adaptable across print materials, delivering an engaging narrative through thoughtfully crafted collector pieces that invite deeper exploration.
The project began with research into key moments in the history of headwear, identifying iconic styles and their cultural significance. This research served as the foundation for developing a cohesive visual system that honors the historic legacy of each era while reinterpreting it through a contemporary lens.
The project expands beyond the zine into a fully realized packaging system, driven by the idea that the editorial piece is only the beginning. The narrative continues through a series of collectibles designed for fashion enthusiasts—objects that both educate and entertain.
