How the partnership works in practice

Bice becomes your external brand and packaging partner for ongoing physical brand work.

Each month, we agree on priorities - packaging updates, launch materials, PR mailers, print files or production checks - and work through them in a focused, practical way.

Best for teams that need senior packaging input regularly, but not a full-time hire.

Why Bice?

Bice is led by Maria Nowicka — a brand and packaging designer with a background in packaging engineering, print production and consumer product development. I believe that the work we create should not just look good in a mockup, but rather create a long-lasting impression in real life.

For every project, I bridge the creative idea that makes people care, with the production logic that helps it become a real commercial object.

Let’s talk.

Tell me what you’re making, where you are in the process — and what feels stressful.

Quick response.

I’ll reply with the best next step — whether that’s a full project, a diagnostic, or a quick clarification first.

Clear next steps.

If it feels like a fit, I’ll outline the scope, timeline, starting budget and what I’d need from you.
