The limited edition Moore Aloha Surfboard tin and decal—designed by University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>–West Oʻahu<\/span> student Harper Okamoto—are now available for purchase, with 100% of net proceeds being donated to the UH<\/abbr> West Oʻahu<\/span> Creative Media program<\/a> and the Moore Aloha Foundation. The art was inspired by pro surfer and Olympic gold medalist Carissa Moore\u2019s Moore Aloha Charitable Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The products launched in September with a celebration at Honolulu Cookie Company\u2019s Hyatt Regency Waikiki location. The special signing event featured both Okamoto—a spring 2024 graduate who earned her bachelor of arts in creative media with a concentration in design and media—and Moore—surfing\u2019s first Olympic gold medalist and five-time world surfing champion. The cookie tin and decal can be found in stores<\/a> or online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I was inspired by the bright colors that are associated with Carissa\u2019s brand and I wanted to incorporate some of those because they are so fun and friendly,” Okamoto said. “For Honolulu Cookie Company, I used simple shapes to represent their message to warmly welcome anyone that comes to the islands and buys their product. I wanted to use something that gave the impression of the aloha spirit, but in a way that would get the message across to anyone even if they don\u2019t speak the languages here.”<\/p>\n

Okamoto\u2019s winning design was the result of Honolulu Cookie Company teaming up with the UH<\/abbr> West Oʻahu<\/span> Creative Media program for a student packaging design contest<\/a>.<\/p>\n
