Although this is only the smallest of details, I believe it's a really important one, because when you are branding something in relation to it's location, all these little details add up and are what really makes a brand effective. When it came to the look of my wine bottles though, I didn't have such a clear idea, so I first looked into german wine bottles...
I found that there wasn't much going on with these and they all tended to look very similar in size, colour and design. This made me think about what I actually needed on the label if they were simply house wines. How much info would be necessary? Could I just use a design? I chose to look at the wider picture and at a variety of creative wine bottle designs.
I found examples of unique bottle shapes, creativity in using illustration on a full bottle design and also bottles that don't use a label at all. I really love all of these as they show how tradition can be broken slightly and modern twists can be applied. However, having worked on this project for a while now I just felt that none of these would be right for the brand that I am creating and the styles that I have chosen. I carried on my research though and came across a style that I instantly liked...
