I picked up my pen and drew a rose with thorns and seed, a simple drawing that can be a subject to endless discussions, complemented with repeating handwritten words from the title. The client told me \"this wasn't what I expected to see but I love it...\" Unfortunately - they chose somebody else's design but I' wuite fond of this one so - here it is.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/152/152868/attachment_152868686 "\"Your friend raccoon is blended with the agave plant and he's inviting you to taste this delicious liqueur.\"
Client wanted a clean label with a play on their draft of a raccon/agave illustration, combined with rough and somewhat vintage typography.
They were happy with this design so it ended up being the contest winner.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/153/153006/attachment_153006868 "This label is inspired by an annual festival in Vienna, Leopoldifest. The old label vinery used had a blurry, long-exposure photo of the festival lights in different colors, I thought it was a good idea to grab a pen and draw some of the landmarks in vibrant colors, in a style that will look organized and clean yet maintain the \"carnival\" ambience of the overall design.
The client loved the label and it won the contest, so the Festival can start now as the wine is ready. :)")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/149/149321/attachment_149321819 "\"Our vineyard is different, our wine is different.\" So the label is different. The simple hand-drawn illustration has a an element printed in gold foil that represents a product that stands out from the rest.
The client wanted Times New Roman to be used for the product name, which worked quite well in this case.
Salud!")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/152/152061/attachment_152061697 "\"Tunke\" means \"sauce\" in German, and this label was created for a BBQ sauce made from wine.
Product name and the manufacturer's logo are printed in metallic foil, the rest of the elements in white and grey on a matte paper. Client's idea is to use a different color of metallic foil for other sauces in their porduct line. Bon appetit!")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/146/146580/attachment_146580626 "This label design was done for an Italian herbal liquor/bitter bottle, the client posted a photo of a bottle I liked a lot so (as usual) I went on to createa 3D model for, and I thought a busy label would rather \"take away\" from the beauty of the bottle itself, so I created a clean, geometric semi-rosette which incorporates herbal elements and colors, with simple, ArtDeco style typography for the product name.
The client evetnually chose a different, organic looking illustrative design but as I really like the overal design I've created for this contest - I decided to add it to my portfolio.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/150/150188/attachment_150188848 "This wine label's concept is based on the layout of client's winery, with the mild hill slope behind the massive farmhouse and the wineyard in front of it.
As it's actually a redesign of their former labels featuring the sun in the upper corner - I've drawn the sun as well rising up behind the hill as well.
All elements are printed with the use of metallic foil in different colors, against a matte black paper.
Asymmetric capsule with a cutaway is also used as it adds to the overall design and the it follows the form of the label.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/149/149281/attachment_149281922 "The client named a line of diffrerent sparkling wines after their children, so I implemented the name into grapes printed in gold foil, with the wine name in black so they stand out and can be easily read. Not too easy - my goal was to get people's attention, make them curious to figure out what those letters actually mean and put them together into a word - Clare.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/146/146184/attachment_146184092 "This wine label was created for a family -owned winery and the client wanted to have different elements of their property implemented in the design.
Label features an architectural sketch of the house, and the yard in front of it and the gold foil \"brush stroke\" is in the shape of the property gate, which the client is particaularly fond of as it's a property trademark. That made the label design a success and the client was very happy about it. Also, the additional label at the bottom is there for the production year only, as the client didn't want it to be included in the main label.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/152/152737/attachment_152737237 "In the contest brief the client presented an AI generated image of a fox and explained they wanted to see a slightly different looking fox on the label, with all typographic elements done in a very trditional wine label style. I knew I wasn't going to win this contest by veering off so far from what the client's brief described but I still did it, I drew a fox tail with his ears sticking out from the bottom part of the label. I liked it, submitted it in the contest. It didn't win but I think it's cute.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/146/146074/attachment_146074543 "The nymph of the Lake Como in Italy, by the name \"Tavine\" was an inspiration for the producer to name their winery. They wanted something shiny and sparkly, luxurious but not \"over the top\". I thougth that gentle curvy lines representing smooth waves of the lake, printed in silver foil, would be a good way to illustrate it. Didn't win the contest, but I'm adding it to my portfoilo as - you may like it.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/152/152504/attachment_152504599 "This two-piece label is inspired by Michoacan-style art, as per client's request, it features patterns from Michoacan tapestry and architecture. Details like the manufacturer's logo would be printed in copper foil with hot stamping, as well as the base material for the bottom label which would include the batch number as well. Salud!")
