Objective: Saints is a line of top-shelf tropical liquor based on different tropical islands and their native fruit. The design of the bottle labels and canisters is inspired by the fruity flavors featured in each bottle and the tropical colors that you might find in a tropical sunset or on an island.
Inspiration: Each illustration takes inspiration from real fruit and birds. The name saints come from the history of the religious background of the cultures. Each flavor is specifically crafted to represent a specific island and each fruit is native to the island it represents.
Concept: The concept is inspired by the “island vibe” Most people vacation to islands to let loose have fun or even just relax, Saints aims to deliver that feeling with every sip. Each element of the packaging was tailored to the series each island is a series, for this project I chose Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, and Barbados. Each canister features a digital illustration of the island’s national bird.
Thematic treatment: Each bottle design is based on native fruits from that specific island that complement each other. I hand-selected this font because I wanted something that felt foreign but still easy to read and fit nicely with the other elements of the work.
