For the 150th Kentucky Derby, White Claw, the official hard seltzer of the event, joined forces with Homme+Femme and VCCP to create a bold, limited-edition capsule collection that reimagined traditional Derby fashion with a modern twist.
The centerpiece of this collection was the Clawbreaker, incorporates bold, eye-catching colorways inspired by White Claw's signature flavors and features embroidery and patchwork details that nod to the rich history of the Kentucky Derby.

From March of 2020 to October of 2022, nearly 2.5 years, people were out of the office - whether working from home, remote or hybrid - and missed out on quality time with their coworkers. White Claw gave back the 134 happy hours they missed during this period. From Maine to California, we delivered curated happy hour packages to help reconnect reunited co-workers and provide an unforgettable and premium White Claw experience. Each box was White Claw branded and came with White Claw koozies, totes, coasters, a gift card, t-shirts, banners, and a bespoke item that was centered around what that winner missed most about happy hour.

Process of reflection. I have tasked myself with redesigning the covers of each book I finish reading according to my personal interpretation of its contents. As I complete a new cover, I will publish my archive of redesigns here. Each cover is designed with an hour time limit.
