911 Chilli Sauce
Flipflop Design were asked to create a new brand identity and package design which was imminently identifiable as hot pepper sauce at first glance. Flipflop came up with the hard hitting brand name 911 to communicate the seriousness of the heat within. The strap line "One drop does it" coupled with the burnt out font reinforces the brand. The logo design created using chilli peppers is eye catching and a perfect encapsulation of the product.

Tugwell Creek Honey Farm & Meadery
Hired Guns Creative was brought in to create a new brand and label design for Tugwell Creek Honey Farm & Meadery, the oldest honey farm and meadery on Vancouver Island. They were dissatisfied with their old labels - they wanted a design that more accurately reflected their operation, philosophy, and products. The end result is a clever, versatile identity that positions them very firmly as a wine competitor, yet distinctly apart from wineries, and a bright, vivid label that is sure to increase their shelf presence in wine shops.

Wheat Knowledge
A solid icon design that exemplifies a bold illustrative style. The perspective is a little strange, given the standard perspective of iOS icons, but the use of a cross-section does work to grab your attention.

A beautiful example of a logo that uses an ink stamp effect. I love the typography and the way in which the letters have been set. The evident texture and the unique gold colour of the ink help to give this logo real character.
