Wetland Brewing

Brand design for a fictional brewing company

My role

Self-initiated personal project

Completed

2023

Background

“Wetland Brewing” is a fictional brewing company conjured up by my partner and I. What started out as an idea turned into a design project to showcase the approachable and fun nature of the brand.

I had been itching to get back into graphic design and explore brand related work. Bringing this brand to life was the ultimate passion project. Cheers!

Process

Brand exploration

To help establish a direction for the brand look and feel, I created a mood board and explored typography.

Illustration

Drawing inspiration from beverage packaging trends, we decided to use illustration as a way to personify different beer flavors.

While developing the illustrations, it was important to consider what layouts they would appear in to ensure proper spacing and sizing of elements.

Final design

Visual identity

The final visual identity includes a logo and sub-marks, brand colors, typography, and visual elements to tie it all together.

Applying the brand

The visual identity was used to develop designs for both print and digital applications.
