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.

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.
