For the Eightyfive Spring '25 collection, I designed two scarves with nautical themes. The first one features a nautical map, and the second one features a fictional "Yachting Club" logotype.
Nautical Map Scarf
This design was the initial one created for the Eightyfive Spring '25 scarf collection and was intended to be lighter in color. The shade was chosen to evoke the light, natural tone of a ship's wood, providing a warm and inviting feel that is fitting for the spring season. For contrast, the ropes are sketched in a deep Navy Blue, continuing the nautical theme of the line.
The inside of the scarf is a close-up world map, dotted with ships, a classic visual theme often appearing in seafaring. A compass sits centrally, but instead of the classic cardinal points, the compass has the year the company was established, Eightyfive. Beneath the compass, the brand logo sits, finishing the design and giving a touch of identity.
Eightyfive Yachting Club Scarf
For the second iteration, I built off the elements of the first but with a more streamlined design. It consists of a black background with white elements and logo of a high-contrast, mature look.
The ropes enclose the design, with the initials of the brand, "EF", appearing at the corners of the design subtly in the rope pattern. In the center of the design, the Eightyfive Yachting Club logo is placed in curved font. Below, you can see the EF monogram, continuing the nautical theme of the collection by displaying the F in the form of rope.
