INTRODUCING THE PROCESS COLLECTION
A synesthetic experience tying color and smell together in four soy wax, wood wick candles. Created as a collaboration between candlemaker Sweet Dish and Darling and letterpress printers Triple Threat Press, The Process Collection combines packaging and scent design to produce an enveloping experience.
THE INSPIRATION
Since 1906, printmakers have been using a four color printing process, known as CMYK, to print any color imaginable. The process works by separating the image to be printed into the four process colors and then layering those colors in a varied dot pattern to trick the brain into seeing more colors than are actually there.
The Process Collection was created in an attempt to capture the essence of the process colors — cyan, magenta, yellow and black.
THE CANDLES
Process Collection candles are all thoughtfully crafted in Cleveland, Ohio using 100% soy wax, which contains no additives or colorants and uses phthalate free fragrances and essential oils. Each candle is poured, by hand, into a destinctive ink can style tin.
Packaged in a colorful, letterpress-printed label, created on a ca. 1870's Gordon Oldstyle Letterpress, and sealed using tried and true printmaker techniques, the Process Collection is sure to please the designer in us all.
