Cheers! Wine label design

General — February 8th, 2010

585 Wine Partners in Sonoma California contacted us to design wine labels for their new brand, L’Attitude.  In addition to their excellent grape growing conditions, Sonoma, California and Burgundy, France share almost the exact same latitudinal coordinates (39 and 47 degrees respectively).  585 Wine Partners was looking to create labels that were not only classically French in appeal, but also graphically communicated their similar latitudinal parallels. Below you’ll see the end result …. chardonnay and pinot noir labels embossed on a lushly textured cream paper. Cheers!

WOODSIDE HOTELS   •  a boutique line of California hotels

Woodside Hotels felt that their logo was looking dated and was no longer representative of their sophisticated boutique hotel line and chic California destinations. They wanted a typographic mark that not only relayed the refined service and amenities available to their guests, but also portrayed the very friendly, accessible feel within of each of their hotels and spas. The end result was this very welcoming script in a handsome chocolate brown ink. We recommend that you check out our logo in action while relaxing at one of their gorgeous hotels;  Napa Valley Lodge, Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa, Bodega Bay Lodge & Spa, Stanford Park Hotel, and Layfayette Park Hotel & Spa.
