G Gin by G Design Studio




Nothing enhances the every day like a stiff drink. Like the tingling feeling brought on by a perfectly dry martini, there’s something intoxicating about shaking off your inhibitions and liberating your imagination. The designers believe good design is a tonic best enjoyed with a tall glass of gin and a twist of citrus. As the saying goes: “Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker.” The limited-edition ‘g’ gin is a Mediterranean blend of spontaneity, zest, lightness, and joie de vivre, but also juniper, lavender, mastic tears, mandarin, orange, lemon, chamomile and angelica.

They have different colours – and fat content in the milk they produce is also different. Each type has its special taste and health benefits. The designer created Milky Mood, the first milk package that reflects the variety of cows and fat percentage of their milk. The colour-coding helps to navigate in product portfolio and levels up the product perception.

Spirits of the Queen City by O Street Studio





Nestled in the historic Baker neighbourhood, Denver distillery is the city’s first distillery-pub in town. They had gathered a loyal following but was lacking a strong label system for their extensive range of spirits. It was in this spirit that we created the concept behind their packaging. Ron and his team are deeply interested in the stories and art that define the human condition and experience. We drew a multitude of illustrations based in lore and legends.
