Each of the 13 soap bars features bespoke illustrations derived from traditional Greek folk motifs found in EOMMEX archives, reinterpreted through a refined, contemporary lens. A natural color palette reflects the ingredients of each soap, while elegant serif typography paired with clean sans-serif details enhances legibility and sophistication. The logo—a creative fusion of trees forming the number “111,” intertwined with olive leaves and dots—captures the brand’s essence of nature, tradition, and renewal. The overall design honors the simplicity of organic living while elevating the tactile experience of handmade skincare.

The illustration of Black Roger sets the tone for a daring, youthful aesthetic, blending fantasy and freedom into a cohesive visual identity. Distinct label designs differentiate the Spiced Gold and Spiced Black variants through color, texture, and tone, reflecting their individual flavor profiles. With its striking character design, dynamic typography, and daring palette, Black Roger’s branding transforms the classic rum experience into a modern symbol of adventure and self-expression.
Casillero del Diablo Red Fusion designed by Thingular Creative Partners

Drawing inspiration from Mexico’s Talavera pottery, the label integrates intricate, handcrafted patterns that evoke heritage, craftsmanship, and sophistication. These motifs are refined to harmonize with Casillero del Diablo’s iconic visual identity, preserving its global prestige while celebrating Mexican artistry. A distinctive label size and structure further elevate the design, signaling a premium tier beyond the classic “Reserva.” The result is a seamless fusion of Chilean winemaking tradition and Mexican cultural elegance, embodied in a label that feels both authentic and cosmopolitan. This design doesn’t merely decorate the bottle—it narrates a story of unity, respect, and shared passion through the timeless language of design.

Crafted entirely from recyclable paper, the structure features three key components—an inner container, a stabilizing insert, and an outer sleeve—designed for practicality and minimal waste. Die-cut windows on the front not only allow the vegetables to breathe but also create a dynamic visual connection with the illustrated graphics. The packaging’s vibrant mosaic-style illustrations reflect the brand’s youthful spirit and commitment to natural living, while clear pictograms emphasize sustainability and offer simple serving ideas. With organic certification marks and a concise brand story on the back, Fresca’s design achieves a refreshing harmony between eco-friendly engineering and contemporary aesthetics, making healthy snacking look as good as it tastes.

Each product—whether a candle, bath bomb, or personalized set—embodies a refined balance of luxury and modern minimalism. The visual identity is defined by a sleek, scalable system that unifies the range while distinguishing each aroma through subtle color accents and metallic foil embossing. This interplay of texture and tone reflects both the purity of natural essences and the precision of modern technology. Clean typography and structured layouts further emphasize Mittereum’s forward-thinking elegance, resulting in a packaging collection that feels timeless, sensory, and distinctly avant-garde.
Øl’søn Green Gin designed by Van Heertum Design VHD
The Øl’søn Green Gin packaging embodies the brand’s “Circular Thinking, Infinity Design” philosophy through an ingenious blend of sustainability and visual storytelling. The bottle’s infinity-shaped label seamlessly wraps around, replacing the traditional front-and-back layout to symbolize endless renewal. Every element reinforces this concept—from the use of 100% recycled wild glass and apple-residue paper to recyclable foil finishes. The design features fluid illustrations that capture the gin’s flavor notes while maintaining a refined, contemporary aesthetic. Even the cork adds a playful twist, branded with X or O marks that form a collectible Tic-Tac-Toe set, subtly linking back to Øl’søn’s gaming heritage. The result is packaging that’s not only visually arresting but also a genuine statement of circular design and conscious craftsmanship.
Amaro Cheers designed by Studio La Regina

The bottle itself, crafted from Wildly Crafted glass and paired with a wooden cap and natural paper label, reinforces the brand’s eco-conscious mindset.
