Rise above the storm and you'll find sunshine

This project has been my favourite so far.
The brief was to design packaging for St Johns Wort to be used as an anti depressent because science shows it can be as effective as prozac.
I thought the most effective and natural solution would be to have the st johns wort contained in a drink sachet which would just needed to be mixed with hot water, I then invented a range of drinks with fruitfull flavours.
The packaging is designed to reflect the hope of happiness.
The rainbow has many connotations of hope such as gold at the end of the rainbow therefore i played with this idea.

Sweet Sweet Lies

This is a cd cover design I have recently been working on for a brighton band Sweet Sweet Lies.

My aims were to create a brand style which reflected the eccentricity of the band with baroque/rococo ornaments, a distorted circus/sideshow font and the stencil which follows the stories told in the music lyrics.

A mock up design has been sent to the printers, i am curious to see how they will turn out.

The designs are still unfinished though.

I am undesecisive about the colour though as i originally wanted the design to be red but had difficulties making the text stand out.
