Package Design
Taal Coffee
Taal Volcano is an active, beautiful creation in Batangas, Philippines, a city once known to be the coffee capital of the country. Kapeng Bartok is a varietal coffee bean grown and harvested exclusively near the Taal Volcano. I was fortunate enough to visit this area and indulge in their exclusive coffee in 2019, which is what inspired me to create this brand.
HIDE Leatherworks
Inspiration for this package design comes from a popular leatherworking shop in Venice Beach, California - probably one of the most pleasant-smelling shops in existence. The aesthetics and craft material used in this design serves as an homage to the hand craftsmen of the world. Automation has established its place, but work from the hands of a craftsman will always be more unique, personal, and downright cooler.
Millennials, take the time to admire my hand-stitched labels on eco-friendly packaging.
