4. BONIA The Journey
BONIA is one of the biggest haute couture brands in Malaysia, and NOKUA's take on bringing the brand's rich history into life may not be groundbreaking, but it sure is entertaining and fun to boot!
The Journey is a visual project that shows the history of Bonia and Mr Chiang’s role in transforming his leather bags to an international brand, spanning from the 70’s till today. Easy, direct and visually appealing, we think that the video succeeded in conveying the story to all the audiences!
NOKUA Design is certainly surpassing all expectations in the creative industry, and we cannot wait to see more amazing work from them soon!
