Wild Island – Botanical Gin

Creative Agency: Thirst Craft
Project Type: Commercial Work
Client: Wild Island
Packaging Contents: Branding and packaging design
Location: Isle of Colonsay, Scotland

A place of contrasts and stunning wild beauty, Colonsay is home to Wild Island Gin. A botanic gin infused with wild aromas that are all sourced from the small island on the outer reaches of Scotland.

We created a simple and confident brand identity that was influenced by the island’s rich Viking heritage.

The artwork for the bottle packaging was inspired by the wild, organic, evolving and beautiful nature of Colonsay. The artwork was created using watercolours and applied to the bottle through a method of screen printing. By printing on the inside of the transfer, one can always view the watercolour through the bottle from all angles, encouraging drinkers to pick up and explore the bottle.

A beautiful, fluid bottle for a unique gin from a Wild and evolving land.
