“Unleash Your Inner Shower’s” modern, graphic, and distinctive aesthetic was concepted and designed by method’s in-house design studio. The team was moved by the platform’s ethos of encouraging people to bring their best selves into the world, and took design inspiration from the colorful flower power movements of the 60s, emotional rock posters and energizing retro campaigns. Through mixed media, the studio team dialed up method’s legacy of design and creativity via 2D and 3D graphics, lines, and symbols to create a current yet vintage embodiment of the transformational power of the shower.
