Client: Hornitos
Overview: Hornitos Tequila tasked our team to design and produce one-of-a-kind bottle designs as gifts for Guillermo Andrade, a renowned fashion designer, Dr. Woo, a world-class tattoo artist, and Jon Gray, a CEO and co-founder of Ghetto Gastro in celebration of their partnership with The Shot Fund.
The custom bottles and boxes were designed to symbolize a fusion of the Hornitos brand with the distinct personalities of each individual. Their names were crafted to emulate and replace the Hornitos word mark. Every box was given a unique illustration that reflected their individual styles and origins. Guillermo was given a flannel like pattern on the strip stamp as a nod to his fashion roots, Woo, a palm tree tieing to LA roots, and Gray was given a fork to tie to his culinary background.
