Upgrade the corporate identity and look & feel for the Brand Home of Van Ryn’s Brandy, a Distillery in Stellenbosch and South Africa’s oldest brandy producer dating back to 1845.
I was the Art Director for the photography seen throughout. The food was shot by Dirk Pieters, a renowned Cape Town food photographer. The Brand home itself was shot by Simon Barnes and the 3D rendering of the barrels was done by a local company and conceptualiesd by me. It was all created to highlight the beauty of the Van Ryn’s brand home. The home of the world’s finest brandies.
A modern look was used while bringing in elements of the brands existing logo. The Cape Dutch style arch found in the logo and surrounding area was used as a border and device to contain the logo and other content, the colours were kept simple with strong emphasis on the full colour photography, art directed by me. Various elements were done including stationery (letterhead, compliment slip), tasting cards, brochures, emailers, flyers, signage and billboards.
