Liquid Gold and the Award Goes to…



It's a double whammy day in my design world. Starting off with one of the most delicious designs I've ever done. Kuhlman Estate Olive Oil. Believe me this stuff IS the real deal – I'm talking liquid gold. I was lucky enough to be schooled on the process of olive oil production from Susan Kuhlman, who with her husband owns this family ran business smack dab in the Lucchesi Hills of Italy. 

You might recognize the Kuhlman name as belonging to the savvy fashion forward design label. This established identity played an integral role in creating the packaging. The labels were inspired by actual photos of the estate, and incorporated the Kuhlman name by applying the fashion labels to add dimension and texture. I also created a hang tag that give a little more information about the process. These are printed on existing Kuhlman stationary. Keeping everything with a consistent brand feeling.
If you are interested in purchasing this 2008 estate oil, please visit the Kuhlman Blog for more information.

My second post of the day is about some exciting news! The 2009 Communicator Award of Excellence was awarded to the shealink. A quarterly mailer featuring the design success of Shea Inc. Some pretty cool stuff inside these issues too, check out the complete shealink list to see all the award winning designs!
