I built the Smooch brand from the ground up, strategy, identity, wordmark, colour world. The can was the last piece, the moment it finally became something real.
The brief: a packaging system that scales. One hero flavour today, a full range tomorrow, no rebuild required.
First problem, the logo. Smooch's bold wordmark has a curve underneath it that dies at full width on a can, and angling it across felt gimmicky, not confident. So I turned it vertical instead, running the full height, full scale.

Going vertical also quietly solved the shelf problem: cans sit in a fridge door at a slight angle and a horizontal wordmark rotates out of legibility, whereas a full-height one still reads from either side. Curious whether the starburst has a fixed point count across flavours or...
A few highlights from part of my fav projects I’ve worked on over the past few years. Some of them are brand identity, some websites+brand identity products.
