This assignment was to create labels for a fictional
brewery (or winery, etc.) and create an original line of beverages.
We were allowed to use other mediums other than the traditional glass
bottle, so I decided to use extended aluminum cans. I wanted to experiment
with handlettering and the texture it can create through my designs.
I wanted each of the lettering of the beer names to take on the
tone or feeling of the stories they were based on.
I originally planned to use a handlettered version of my brewery name, but after a few tests,
my instructor and I felt text on a path would be best for the hierarchy of each label's logo.
Thank you!
