The brief was to create a modern standalone range endorsed by Rupert Wines. The search for an unconventional representation of an overused brandname led to the art of spirographs, which perfectly express the diversity of the protea species in a contemporary way. <img src="http://payload12.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2545625/protea bottles.jpg" width="670" height="699" width_o="670" height_o="699" src_o="http://payload12.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2545625/protea bottles_o.jpg" data-mid="13068551" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload12.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2545625/protea carton.jpg" width="670" height="699" width_o="670" height_o="699" src_o="http://payload12.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2545625/protea carton_o.jpg" data-mid="13068560" border="0" align="left"/> Research, brand strategy, label design, illustration, copywriting, outer shippers © 2013 Simon Frouws Design The Protea flower was named in 1735 by botanist Carl Linnaeus after the Greek god Proteus, who could assume different forms at will. 92% of the species occur only... http://cargocollective.com/simonfrouws/Origin-Wines-Unsung-Hero http://cargocollective.com/simonfrouws/following/simonfrouws/Origin-Wines-Unsung-Hero Tue, 03 Jan 2012 15:34:29 +0000 Simon Frouws Design / Luxury Goods Branding 2539988 A series of ultra-premium wine labels for Origin Wines in the Stellenbosch region. As the wines are Fairtrade accredited, we decided to champion the vineyard workers on the front label. A highly detailed custom engraving illustrates the worker's tireless contribution from harvest, to pressing, barrel aging and distribution. Wines in the range come from 3 origins - Argentina, Chile & South Africa, as represented by their flags, with Roman numerals indicating the year in which each country's vineyard was established. <img src="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539988/unsung label.jpg" width="670" height="578" width_o="670" height_o="578" src_o="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539988/unsung label_o.jpg" data-mid="12823162" border="0" align="left"/> Research, label design, typography, filigree work, illustration, print-ready artwork © 2013 Simon Frouws Design A series of ultra-premium wine labels for Origin Wines in the Stellenbosch region.

The solution was to bring across the message in a down-to-earth way. The wraparound label is printed with vegetable-based pigments on Cyclus Offset, a 100% recycled, uncoated paper. It's not glued to the bottle, and can be easily separated for recycling, by tearing along the perforation provided. <img src="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539799/organic pack.jpg" width="670" height="672" width_o="670" height_o="672" src_o="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539799/organic pack_o.jpg" data-mid="12822236" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539799/organic close.jpg" width="670" height="711" width_o="670" height_o="711" src_o="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539799/organic close_o.jpg" data-mid="12822226" border="0" align="left"/> Market research, brand strategy, label design, copywriting, outer shippers, finished artwork © 2013 Simon Frouws Design From interviews conducted with Spier staff and patrons, we discovered that organic wines were generally misunderstood.

Sourced from Saverglass in France, the Helios bottle's round profile was the perfect canvas to show leopard, lion, cheetah and lynx. Each cat is reverse fired on the bottle to magnify through the liquid. Tom Nevin, respected author of African fables, was tasked with the copywriting duties, bringing each cat’s tale to life. <img src="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539626/gwa pack.jpg" width="670" height="466" width_o="670" height_o="466" src_o="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539626/gwa pack_o.jpg" data-mid="12821152" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539626/gwa cats.jpg" width="670" height="711" width_o="670" height_o="711" src_o="http://payload11.cargocollective.com/1/5/184027/2539626/gwa cats_o.jpg" data-mid="12821144" border="0" align="left"/> Research, brand strategy, naming, typography, package design, gift carton design, illustration and copywriting © 2013 Simon Frouws Design Targeting the U.S. market, this range of highly collectible herbal infused African brandies depict a big African cat on each of the 4 variants produced - Honeybush,... http://cargocollective.com/simonfrouws/Bellingham-The-Bernard-Series http://cargocollective.com/simonfrouws/following/simonfrouws/Bellingham-The-Bernard-Series Tue, 03 Jan 2012 14:27:08 +0000 Simon Frouws Design / Luxury Goods Branding 2539469 The Bernard Series celebrates the legend of Bernard Podlashuk, the maverick winemaker, who helped place South African wine on the map.
