D.S. & DURGA

Studio Scissor crafted this bold storefront for D.S. & DURGA, the Made-in-NYC perfume and candle house known for its evocative scents. The design is anchored by an enormous black grotesque setting of DS&DURGA that fills the cream hero, its confident letterforms giving the fragrance brand a distinctly editorial edge. Richly lit product photography — a shattered lightbulb, an oyster resting on teal, candles like Salt Marsh Rose — pairs poetic captions such as “Rose-imbued coastal airs” with a playful “Take the Quiz” scent finder. It is a stylish balance of commerce and character, where oversized typography and considered art direction carry the mood. A confident piece of web design that you can browse at dsanddurga.com.
