A press-on nail brand
with a magazine's eye.

Nail Daze makes press-on nail sets designed like editorial objects: marbled, chromed, hand-finished. KRAM built the brand's visual world around that idea, from a wordmark that behaves like a fashion masthead to the feed that carries it.

Nail Daze wordmark: the word DAZE set in a high-contrast display serif beneath the word nail, with a swash curling into a star

The mark, and how it arrives.

Nail Daze had a name that wanted to be set in type, not drawn as a picture. The wordmark takes a high-contrast display serif, the kind that runs across a fashion masthead, and lets the final letter fall into a swash that circles back to a single star.

In motion it draws itself on, catches a chrome sheen, and settles. It is the first thing a customer sees on a reel and the last thing they see on a box.

The feed, art-directed as one piece

On a grid, a post stops being a post. Nine tiles alternate hand, product, and editorial, with the mark holding the centre.
