DESIGN NAME: Barrel Creek Provisions
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Logo and Packaging Design
INSPIRATION: Probiotics were making their way into the mainstream and these naturally fermented veggies were flying off Whole Food’s shelves in Austin, the company’s hometown. It was time to expand nationally and, to do so, they needed to stand out from the noise as both wholesome and powerpacked.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: We wanted to make it easy for consumers to see how natural, nutrient-packed and effective these veggies were. To do so, we created a name that evoked the cold, fresh water of Austin’s Greenbelt springs, and paid homage to the age-old barrel picking process. We used classic botanical illustrations to highlight the natural, earthy ingredients while the packaging’s compositional simplicity insured maximum shelf impact.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The product is generally refrigerate to keep the probiotic vegetable fresh. They come in three products sizes. The consumer can select a soft pack travel size pouch, a traditional glass 16 or 32 FL OZ jar or the fermented brine juice which is also a glass bottle. The glass jar or bottle help keep the vegetable fresh along with also maintain a level of authenticity. The strong, bold logotype give product more visibility and shelf impact.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in April 2017 in New York and finished in January 2018 in New York, and the product.
