Two fantasy worlds collide.
Nykur & Draco Aqua

Nykur, a mythical beast of Faroese folklore, appears in the shape of a shimmering grey horse emerging from the depths of Faroe’s lakes. Its beauty tempts weary travelers to mount or pet it. Once they do, they stick fast, trapped as Nykur drags them to a watery grave. To break the spell, call out its name - Nykur.

From the beginning, the brand philosophy was to create a premium organic vodka that is smooth, unlike any other existing.

Produced using pure Faroese water filtered through the 12 layers of 55 million-year-old basalts that allow natural cleansing and mineralization, and made of sustainably farmed, all-natural, certified organic ingredients, Nykur presents a higher standard of spirits that are aromatic and flavorful.

Two fantasy worlds collide. In collaboration with artist Anne Stokes, Draco Aqua makes a brief appearance in the real world through Nykur’s award-winning organic vodka.

As an RPG fan, I grew up surrounded by fantasy worlds such as Dungeons and Dragons, and Magic The Gathering through my brother, with the advent of video games, I finally had my chance to explore different worlds by playing Legend of Zelda, and Final Fantasy. With this background, I am delighted to have been invited to create this packaging design and the product visual, as well as its 3D visualization.

Enjoy the purity of Nykur Vodka but stay alert. Nykur’s spirit lives in every bottle.

I was looking forward to the opportunity to share with you a project of packaging design I loved creating last year.

Commodore's Gin is not fancy or a myth, it's a true story of bravery and about how strong a man's heart can be who has the sea for his home, refuge, and fortress.

Proudly made in Croatia, with a meticulous, and exhaustively refined formula, with loads of juniper, like walking through a pine wood forest, subtle hints of citrus linger in the background, this is not a gin for the faint-of-hearted.

Inspired by the nautical universe, the product design and identity use straight lines and some enigmatic symbols, like the Commodore's rank seal and the nautical flags on the neck label to compose the elegant and inviting look leading us to the sea and avoid using burlesque elements.

Nautical flags aim to provide ways and means of communication in situations related to the safety of navigation and persons, being an international code system used for a boat to signal to shore or for two boats to signal to each other.

The design amplifies the sensory experience using several different finishings, like embossing, copper foil, and high-gloss UV varnish, to complete the eye-catching product visuals.

May, 2017.

We were working on this project for WildBliss Organics.

Cultivated by the elements. The herbs in our teas are picked by hand in the remote parts of primeval forests in the Carpathian Mountains. These herbs are more than organic; they're wild-cultivated by Mother Nature herself.

The product was modeled, textured and rendered in MODO. The scene was illuminated with HDR light and some area light to define the contours. Modeling, texturing, scene composition, lighting, rendering and post-production, all were created from scratch.
