“Museums & Galleries have not only delivered an outstanding and environmentally conscious range, but they have done so with passion and sensitivity to our brand.”
Ben Dorney, creative director at Museums & Galleries, continued: “It’s a privilege to collaborate with BBC Studios on such an iconic and important brand as BBC Earth.
“As you would expect, the range delivers unforgettable images from the animal world, which will resonate with fans of Blue Planet II and Planet Earth II. The ground breaking spirit of these series has made them a global phenomenon with a vital message, which encouraged us to be innovative with the packaging and production of the range from an environmental perspective too.”
Ben added: “BBC Studios have been very supportive and fantastic to work with, and we’re thrilled with the launch collection. It features an unparalleled British brand with a uniquely relevant story at its heart — that’s what we’re all about.”
