Originated from a chef who loves chocolate, insisting on the cocoa raw materials and the purely manual spirit of the staff, each finished product is the result of repeated or overturned, perhaps not necessarily satisfying every expectation, but it is continuous Stacking and colliding waves. At the entrance, it is not just the evolution of today, but also the corrections and flaws that have never stopped.
The packaging design uses the cigar box as the main axis of the concept. Natural cocoa is as addictive as essential tobacco. The texture of the cowhide and the novel structure represent the unique taste and style of the gift giver. It is also the delicateness and cherish of the recipient.

Brand "Aragveli" speaks to modern Georgians who live free and open-minded but at the same time respect past, traditions and culture. Name "Aragveli" derives from the little squad of 300 brave peasants and fearless warriors defending homeland from invaders in the battle of Krtasnisi, which took place at the end of 18th century. These brave and freedom-loving people populated high mountains of Svaneti and Tianeti, the regions of Georgia where river Aragvi is taking place.
"Aragveli" ideally, can be considered a common name for Georgian in general, as it encompasses values supreme for every worthy Georgian citizen: love for homeland, authenticity, respect for past's traditions and openness for progress and the future. Culture always defines person and soul, as with simple decor and plain ornaments the faces of people of mountains always bear straight eye, order and honesty.
Major inspiration - visually were strict, simple an clear geometrical forms which often can be seen in the ornaments of Georgian culture, be it traditional garments, objects of everyday life or warfare.

Niko Pirosmani, simply referred to as Nikala (1862–1918), was a Georgian primitivist painter who posthumously rose to prominence.
To celebrate 150th anniversary of profound Georgian painter Nikala Pirosmani, Teliani Valley decided to come up with a souvenir wine, red and white in a single pack. Intended to be for export markets mostly, this brand had to bear more of exclusivity and uniqueness, at the same time request was to step aside from standard packaging and traditional labeling.
To keep things fresh we decided to take a different approach, instead of using instantly identifiable to practically every art lover, primitivist style, painter's works, we concentrated on Pirosmani's uniquely survived photographic portrait.
Inspired by characteristic grainy photographs in old newspapers, this design work mostly focuses on a persona of the artist, psychological authenticity which can be read in the eyes of the painter, looking at us from another epoch.
The uncountable black grains of small and bigger sizes symbolize splattered in time and space paintings by Nikala, which mostly were painted on simple black cloth, as he assumed it was more convenient material for his unique naive style.
Pirosmani red semi-sweet wine naturally made from the Saperavi grape variety cultivated in the Akhoebi vineyards of the Kardanakhi village in the Alazani Valley. The wine is fermented in clay jars buried in the ground, an ancient Kakhetian wine-making technique. Pirosmani white semi-sweet wine made from a 40% Tsolikauri, 60% Tsitska blend. It has won 3 gold medals and one silver medal at international competitions.
Niko Pirosmani, a Georgian primitivist painter, orphaned at a young age, was characterized by the naïve, childlike simplicity of his subject matter and technique. He taught himself to paint as a child, creating his own oil for painting, and his specialty was painting directly onto black oil cloth.

Background: The Kolonist Winery, located in Danube Bessarabia, has a reach history but always trying to be trendy and support the fresh, open-minded views of modern youth, especially today in the era of gender equality and elimination of stereotypes.
Idea: Once upon a time, women warriors rode along the steppes of Danube Bessarabia on horseback. But a modern woman does not need to have a real horse to feel free. It is enough just to drink a glass of Riesling by Kolonist – and you are in for the ride of your life.
Execution: A minimalistic but attractive image that you want to associate yourself with. In order to emphasize the rebellious spirit, we put the bottle label diagonally.

CUT RUMLocation: Hammersmith, UK
CUT RUM is a range of quality, authentic liquids using only natural ingredients; with a portfolio that includes amazingly delicious rums: a sensational Spiced, a far too smooth Overproof and a knockout Smoked.
It was clear from the start that the liquids were the centre of attention here. This wasn’t a brand that was going to eulogize about its provenance, its history, its master distiller’s vision or a quirky brand myth. The co-founders Paul and James, were straight-to-the-point, no-nonsense personalities and knew they had great products and simply wanted to ‘cut the c**p’ to focus on what was important. Their only brief was to be disruptive and do the things the others don’t so people would see it, try it and enjoy it.
This attitude informed everything we created from the bold and punchy pack design with its grounded custom bottle design, through the brand’s tone of voice that runs through all its communications (All Smoke, No Mirrors, #CutToTheChase #CutToTheRum) to the look and feel for both its digital and real-world experiences. Nothing fluffy, nothing unnecessary, no smoke and mirrors; this was just a simply cut story about 3 great and distinct products.

Packaging Contents: Cigars
If you know your cigars, you’ll know that Camacho is one of the most exciting brands in the industry. At the end of last year, the Honduran company announced that it would be rereleasing a celebrated premium cigar originally developed in the early 1960s: the Camacho Diploma. This refined cigar – now labelled as Camacho Diploma Special Selection – has been crafted in the same manner as its predecessor, using 100% Honduran Corojo, but housed in entirely new packaging, courtesy of MW Luxury.
The innovative pack for this exciting product is comprised of three separate components: a wrap rigid box, a lacquered MDF presentation box, and individual lacqured cigar boxes. The main container is hexagonal, shaped like a triangle with blunt ends. Coloured in a deep glossy indigo and featuring white Camacho branding, this impressive box offers a truly innovative way to store cigars. Lift off the lid, which features a clear acrylic insert so the contents can be seen, and you can access the 18 individually packaged cigars.
The smaller cigar containers are triangular in shape, meaning they tessellate perfectly, sitting snugly within the larger box. Crafted from okoume wood, these colour-matched boxes are little works of art in their own right – with a light push, the rigid wooden lid slides off revealing the cigar resting in its wooden compartment. It provides a special new dimension to the cigar-smoking ritual, adding lasting value to what is already a fantastic product.
Only 500 of these spectacular limited edition packs have been manufactured to date – so if you want your own, you’ll have to move fast!

CHALLENGE
Following the success of their Rice Ramen noodle line, Lotus Foods wanted to continue to evolve their brand by creating a more convenient and portable product—the instant noodle cup. Entering a totally new space, they turned to Bulldog Drummond to help them transform this popular but outdated category with a healthier, more flavorful and sustainably sourced rice noodle option that would stand out on shelf.
RESULT
Bulldog explored new designs that blend Lotus Foods’ more sophisticated and natural look with more fun and whimsical design elements. Bold typographic lockups keep a strong connection to the core brand, while bright colors and playful patterns push this line into a more modern space. Partnered with clever language, the packaging brings the flavors to life while clearly differentiating this cup from its bland competitive shelf set. Launching in traditional Asian flavors, like Tom Yum and Red Miso, this Rice Ramen is poised to help reinvigorate a staid category and look great doing it.

Packaging Contents: Cotton candy
Can you touch a cloud? Or taste it? When we were children each of us imagined ice cream snowdrifts or caramel rivers.
Cotton candy is one of those simple wonders from our childhood: the light-as-air form of that delicacy impresses children so deeply that it makes them delighted and happy. But all that magic is lost because of the boring packaging used in supermarkets and children don’t feel this delight at all.
The concept behind “Sweet-sky” is a transparent pack for cotton candy through which you can see the sky. It makes the dreams of children come true. They can touch and taste a real cloud. There are different flavors in the product line such as strawberry, blackberry and blueberry. Every flavor has its own mood and color.
