BRIEF

Bring centuries-old Nantucket craft into the modern era, creating products and a brand that feel timeless yet contemporary.

WHAT WE DID

We reimagined traditional Nantucket Lightship Baskets and other heritage crafts through a modern lens, designing 22 bespoke products including purses, lighting, and tables. From the ground up, we developed a cohesive brand identity, curated a strong Instagram presence, and crafted marketing materials that showcase the studio’s modern-meets-tradition aesthetic. Every detail—from product design to storytelling—reflects a refined, contemporary interpretation of timeless craft.

RESULT

The Manca Studio now stands as a modern expression of Nantucket tradition. With a striking visual identity, curated product line, and an engaged audience, the brand drives direct sales, inspires followers, and positions timeless craft as both contemporary and highly desirable.
