Modena & Co: Color-Accurate at Container Scale
The problem

International buyers didn't trust Modena's imagery — cognac rendered orange, black lost its grain, and every serious inquiry ended with '…please ship samples.' Sample logistics cost tens of thousands annually and added weeks to every deal.

Goals
  • Imagery buyers trust enough to order from
  • One visual library feeding every channel
  • Faster seasonal collection launches
Strategy

Treat color as an engineering problem. Every shoot ran against physical swatches with calibrated targets; editing happened on color-managed displays with the actual product on the desk. Then we built consistency into the system itself: documented shot lists per product family so season two matches season one perfectly.

Execution

Color pipeline

Calibrated capture and edit workflow validated against physical leather samples across 40 colorways.

Full-range shoot

1,400 SKUs: packshots, macro grain details, lifestyle scenes — SKU-named into their DAM.

Channel delivery

Marketplace-compliant crops, catalog layouts and B2B portal imagery generated from the master library.
