W.Wagtail

“It wouldn’t be a stretch to claim that birds are somewhat over represented on wine labels. When Voice was given the task of designing the packaging for Longview Vineyard’s sparkling wine, W.Wagtail, they recognised the importance of creating something that really stood out from the existing flock of bird themed labels.

Drawing on the audacious personality of the wine’s namesake, the Willy Wagtail, Voice modelled the label on the styling of bird watchers membership certificate from the 1940s. The ornithological subject matter was an opportunity not only to feature the local birdlife but also to feature the flora that exists around the vineyard, which hinted at the fruity and colourful flavours of the wine.

Parkinsons Disease: Best-selling Book On The Internet

Designed in 2003 as a personal project. Corrugated cardboard tubes protect the bulbs and offer an interesting visual texture and a change from the standard cuboid bulb box. Thick edges mean these would still be able to be stacked and the recessed ‘lids’ help protect the bulbs from scratches while allowing the consumer to take a peek at the product inside.

&Co

“&Co represents simplicity – of purpose, provenance and production. The winery produces a single exceptional estate wine each season. To emphasise this we’ve pared the identity back to a black and white palette. We’ve made a feature of the type, letting it ‘speak’ to the customer. &Co breaks convention with more traditional looking wine brands, topped off with the uniquely cool closure of a crown seal, we’re not at all upset that once opened we have to drink the whole bottle.”

“Heart, mind, & body vitamins are geared towards people who are interested in natural supplements. The packaging is slightly transparent in order to highlight the beauty of the natural products. The products are in liquid form for people who don’t want to spend their days taking a lot of pills. The patterns on the labels abstractly reflect the different systems of the body that the particular vitamin benefits. The color palette is soothing and pleasant which gives the user a feeling of ease and assurance that the supplements they’re taking are pure and natural.”

“Every year, Phillips Brewery crafts a custom pilsner to accompany the 3-day party that is Rifflandia Music Festival in Victoria BC. Festival creative director Brandon Velestuk and Scum Creative Labs created a whimsical plaid label to adorn the bottle. Unfortunately this year, the brewery ended up making its own label, so this version won’t see the printed light of day.”
