Back Market are a punchy start up from Paris who are fed up of seeing perfectly good electrical products go to landfill so they created a platform where old products could be refurbished and resold, giving them a new lease of life. As a five week sprint, I joined the product team in Paris to help explore new ideas and bring a fresh new approach.

We were never going to settle for not adding the final touches, the special touches, especially with a brand like Back Market. Quick experiments using Principle to explore the idea of motion. Pushing the message through Easter eggs.
