Location: Japan
Our branding project for Guell, a roadwear brand based in Nara, Japan.
With the rise in people involved in road biking, there has recently been demand for increased diversity in roadwear. Different from the common sporty items on the market Guell produces a more urban and modern line.
Inspiration for the logotype was taken from gears, speed, muscle movement, breathing, and the light and shadows from the sun. The jersey pays homage to Nara and represents a unity with nature by incorporating into the graphic design the contours of the Nunome Lake segment of the "Tour of Japan", Japan's highest level road race.
With a minimal urban taste and a gentlemanly refinedness, Guell has created a brand identity as "The Urban Roadwear".

Bulldog Drummond Project Type: Produced, Commercial Work
Packaging Content: Dog food
Location: USA
CHALLENGE
As a longtime strategic partner with The Honest Kitchen, we worked intimately with their product development and marketing teams to build a new product pipeline. Part of our charge was to identify entirely new categories and food forms that could give existing customers new and meaningful ways to feed their pets and to introduce new users to the brand. Bulldog Drummond helped to position, name and design the new product line so that it logically connects with the current product portfolio.
RESULT
After a consumer deep dive, we were able to identify key differentiators that appeal to their desired target customers. We created key product messaging to communicate the product purpose and benefits and we guided the product positioning to differentiate the product on-shelf. The platform design includes a convenient packaging form and a transparent window to showcase the new superfood clusters. Proper Toppers are available online and at premium independent pet stores, and are contributing to a growing part of The Honest Kitchen’s business.

Packaging Contents: Tonic Water
With quinine being an ingredient in tonic water as well as a treatment of malaria, Fever Tree wanted to create a series of limited edition bottles for a campaign with Malaria No More UK.
In African culture, tribal face painting isn’t only a form of self expression or hunting, but it is also used to scare ones enemies away. This became a strong connection to the relationship between quinine and the enemy; malaria. Using tribal face painting as a source of inspiration, I created visuals that symbolise what ‘life’ means to four countries in my chosen continent (Africa).

Location: Denver, CO, USA
Varnish was asked to conceive a compelling package for Solemn Oath Brewery’s special collaborative beer with The Bruery. Conquest is the fourth edition in Solemn Oath’s “Seven Seals” Series, and the first time a beer from this series was packaged. Based upon the biblical theming of this series, we decided to dig deep in the book of Revelation. The Gutenberg Bible quickly became the focus, for it’s history and beautiful graphic qualities. On the beer label, you will see the book of Revelation reproduced in it’s entirety from the Gutenberg Bible. The tube itself is meant to evoke an ancient tome, and also cleverly holds a rolled poster print of SOB resident artist’s Jourdon Gullet's 4 Horsemen mural from the taproom. Limited edition of 3,000.

This particular project had as its main characteristic, the use of art, to tell a story.
In this case, I made the sculpture of a woman, who is becoming a grapevine or grape plant. To make this sculpture, I had to use several tools. Mainly, use 3Ds Max, for modeling and vRay for the final render of the sculpture, with vines and leaves. The final process, with atmospheric effect, wind and degradation, was done with Photoshop.
For this project, two models were made, one in daytime environment, for wines with white paper label and one with night atmosphere, for black background labels.
The production of this wine is handmade and artistic, and that is why the importance of using art, and stories.

Project Type: Produced, Commercial Work
Location: Chicago, IL. USA
Packaging Contents: Spirits
Packaging Substrate / Materials: Paper
In 2011, when the craft movement for distilleries was well into its upswing, Keith McConnell, a commercial airline pilot, wanted in.
It took a few years and a couple of heartbreaking losses for him to take steps toward creating a distillery of his own. On a practical level, it made sense. Airline work put him on the road three or four days a week. That meant McConnell couldn't care for his son, now 12, after his wife died of a brain aneurysm. So he quit and transitioned to Volkswagen, working part time as a contractor.
But after his brother's death early this year and going through The Company Lab's accelerator program, McConnell took the decisive step of committing completely to his startup, a craft distillery known as Renovare Distillery.
Renovare is a craft distillery that plans to feature the farmers who produce the company’s grains in order to show the link between its products and land and community behind them. The initial lineup is expected to include whiskey, vodka, gin and flavored variations. McConnell plans to disclose the process from the time the farmer plants the grain through harvest, along with the art and science of the distillation process. Whiskies will be four-grain.
Thoroughbred Spirits Group were tasked with designing a portfolio that represented the authentic spirit of Renovare, without yielding to the trends of the craft spirits movement. The result is a clean, uncompromising portfolio of spirits that are able to provide a premium outlook while highlighting Keith's principles.

Location: Athens, Greece
Packaging Contents: Honey
Packaging Substrate / Materials: Glass & Paper
Printing Process: Silk-Screen Printing & Thermographic Printing
Our client, Thodoris Kafadaris, began beekeeping as a hobby and out of admiration for bees. However, he eventually reached a point where he could produce three good quality honeys (including heather, thyme and orange honey). He thought about selling at markets and local delicatessen shops but wanted to do it right. So he turned to us for brand guidance, to provide him with a name and packaging design.
After an extensive research on bee’s lifecycle, biology and society, we stumbled upon something incredible: the average worker bee produces 1 gram of honey during its entire life! Which means it takes 12 bees their entire lives to make a teaspoon of honey. “Twelve bees” name also encompasses our client’s values and standards, including his close relationship and respect for bees as well as his decision to intentionally keep production low.
The logo comprises the combination of the brand’s name and a linear, minimal symbol of a bee flying over a spoon to indicate “twelve bees’s” meaning. Through the packaging design we wanted to communicate the fact that the honey is minimally processed (raw). To that end we used elements such as raw jute and raw kraft paper tags. However, those elements together with the linear logo symbol and icons create a balanced composition that implies a raw yet good-quality honey.

KapitiLocation: Auckland, New Zealand
Packaging Contents: Milk
Packaging Substrate / Materials: Plastic
As renowned producers of speciality cheeses and high quality ice cream, it made perfect sense for Kapiti Fine Foods to launch their own milk range. As you’d expect though, this is no ordinary milk-it is a premium, organic product that delivers on the Kapiti promise of quality, freshness and innovation. It’s as close as you can get to pure cows’ milk, with nothing added and nothing taken away.
Such a premium product obviously needed packaging that reflected all of these qualities. Firstly a proprietary bottle was created that featured an embossed Kapiti logo. A simple, classic shape that evokes all of the cues of a bygone age-when milk was delivered to your door in a glass bottle. Curious was then commissioned to create the packaging tone of voice to complement this. Our goal from the outset was to allow the rich, creamy quality of the milk to be the hero to the consumer and unencumbered by excessive visual ‘noise’. This was achieved by using transparent labelling, simple colour coding for each variant and an emphasis on classic typography and iconography-with a contemporary edge. The key feature of the product (organic) and the supporting lettering were handcrafted by artist Jo Tonc to reflect the care and attention that Kapiti lavished on creating this outstanding range of milk. All in all, a sophisticated solution for a very sophisticated brand.
As usual, Curious has delivered.

Let’s all get Naked!
The Naked Marshmallow Company have re-invented the world of marshmallows with a unique and innovative range of naturally handmade products. Their branding needed to be equally dynamic and encapsulate their light-hearted take on a campfire classic.
Inspired by campfire marshmallow toasting, Design Happy created an iconic crossed sticks marshmallow graphic and amplified Naked's handmade proposition with a simple and understated brand mark. A bespoke pillow box structure with a tent inspired diecut in bright, punchy colours delivered real shelf appeal and standout.
After establishing the Naked brand, Design Happy moved on to include their brave new range extension introducing real marshmallow infused gin and vodka to their portfolio.
The use of textured kraft paper and the copper type belly band evoked premium credentials whilst the wax sealed cap representing the tasty, gooey marshmallow, added the perfect finishing touch.
The campfire camaraderie between Design Happy, the Naked team and print partners Label Apeel ensured creative boundaries were pushed all the way through from concepts to print to achieve superior high end finishes.
The Naked guys have made a real impact on the increasingly competitive start-up food and beverage scene. Listings in Liberty’s, Selfridges, notonthehighstreet.com and a recent recommendation on the Gadget Show has seen a flurry of excitement and more importantly sales.
