American Package Design Awards 2025
A floral-inspired, holographic packaging design elevates a honey brand's retail identity and regional connection.
When a honey producer transitioned from wholesale to retail, we had the opportunity to build her brand from the ground up—creating a cohesive identity that spanned raw honey, bath, and body products. With the client also being a florist, we wove her passion for flowers into the design, using a peony as the focal point. Overlaid with a honeycomb pattern and printed on holographic film, the packaging catches the light with a subtle, captivating shimmer. Rooted in Eastern Washington—home to world-class wine regions—her honey quickly gained interest from wineries. Inspired by the wine industry’s AVA designation, we embraced this regional connection, labeling the honey “Columbia Valley AVA.”
