Challenge
The World’s First Carbon Negative Fashion Brand
The company Sheep Inc. sells just one product. The sweater’s wearers can scan an NFC tag sewn onto the sweater’s hem with their phones to follow the journey the wool goes on: being cleaned in China, spun in northern Italy, manufactured in Spain, then finally sent to a warehouse in the U.K. They’ll learn about the company’s efforts to minimize its carbon footprint by working with mostly green energy suppliers and using yarn waste to add unique detailing to the neckline of every sweater. One hundred percent of the company’s packaging is made from recycled materials. Despite the wool’s journey spanning multiple continents, the impact of material transport accounts for only about 1% of Sheep Inc.’s total carbon footprint.

Solution
For this project we created a horizontally scrolling WooCommerce site with custom content sections and animations. We created a page for each sweater to display the provenance of each sweater's creation and enable owner to register sweater against their profile. Each sweater is linked to a sheep, it’s farm, and it’s events to share "communications from each sheep" to share with the sweater owner linked to each sheep.
