Today I want to share this beautiful branding and packaging of a Whiskey brand from Germany. Designer Chad Michael from New York took this project to a whole other level, take a look at this beauty.

Migrant {Malt “Scotch” Whiskey} is a distilled spirit from Germany.

Challenge

In early 2013, I was contacted by the Trautwein Distillery Company to help them develop their new brand “Migrant”.
They’re a German based company who wanted to develop a brand on their late grandfather, Ken Trautwein, 1930’s migration travels. The whiskey is uniquely made by using scottish blends from their next door neighbor in Speyside which are then aged in American Oak all the while being distilled in Germany. Truly a cross-cultural experience.

Solution

The solution was to use visual cues from his actual passport, passage, and the rawness that period reflected. Being minimal, rough, and building up the “craft” cues helped evoke the character of the story.

I think every Half-Life fans are nostalgic when it comes to this amazing game. On the past years we’ve heard many rumours around a new game and the long delay has emerged from its release. Since Valve are not really into games and more into gaming hardware, seeing from their last announcements. We probably won’t see any Half-Life games anytime soon. But let’s remember the good times with this awesome compilation of artworks.

Just in case you don’t know what Half Life is about, here’s the Half Life Wikia where you can find pretty much all basic information about this franchise and it’s culture.
