The Protea Rosé packaging is gorgeous. The white floral pattern that envelops the entire bottle of soft pink liquid is splendid in its elegance. It creates the feeling of a warm summer day in the south of France. But there is so much more to this packaging concept than the beautiful bottle.
Package design is about more than the visual communication of graphic design. Sometimes the container itself speaks volumes. Wine is a market dominated by standard vessels. A unique bottle stands out.

West + Wilder is a brand sold exclusively in cans. The product is available in boxes of three. The design of the cans is simple and elegant featuring detailed plant illustrations on the face. The artwork wraps completely around the can allowing lots of space to detail the brand inspiration—West coast states including California, Oregon, and Washington—and to highlight their contribution in support of preserving wild public spaces.
