BALADI – Premium Mediterranean Spice Brand Identity
BALADI is a premium Mediterranean spice brand inspired by family traditions and authentic recipes. I used Envato AI to explore concepts, then refined the branding, packaging, character selection, and storytelling manually. I completed the label system, mockups, and promotional campaign using Envato tools and Photoshop.
Human by Design: AI helped generate ideas, but every major creative decision—from the visual identity and packaging to the final brand experience—was directed and refined by me.

BEYOND CAPSULE — Brand Identity, Packaging & Art Direction
Know what is inside.
An independent identity for a fictional US-market supplement line, developed from the information on the label outward.
The starting point was a nutraceutical brand with a futuristic aesthetic. The challenge was to explain its composition and formats without making that aesthetic stand in for evidence of results.
01 / Collection and detail.
The line presents ashwagandha root powder in two formats: capsules and powder. Format, ingredient and quantity lead the reading order. Yellow-green identifies capsules; lavender identifies powder. The palette carries through the label bands, lids, colored capsule halves and scoop. Names and numerical codes support recognition alongside color.
02 / From 3D to packaging.
The jars and accessories were built in Blender around that identification system. One half of each capsule is colored, while the other is transparent. The label hierarchy moves from the front panel into Supplement Facts, suggested use and supporting information. The second board pairs original 3D renders with the flat label artwork so the packaging can be read as a designed object, not only as a campaign image.
03 / Editorial and applications.
The same structure extends to a digital entry screen and A5 product sheets. The studio campaign explores the collection through low angles, top views, macro textures and a capsule held between fingers. Product references guide the AI-assisted images, with selection focused on consistency of color, packaging and scale. The accompanying 20-second film animates the selected stills and typography, with an original instrumental soundtrack.
Creative direction, visual identity, packaging, 3D and art direction: Mauricio Pontual / MP House Studio.
Tools: Blender and Higgsfield. Motion assembled in Higgsedit.
Self-initiated concept; not commissioned. Fictional brand and product specifications. AI-assisted editorial imagery based on original 3D packaging. No product efficacy or market results are claimed.
I love how you pair the colors
More visuals from the rejected brand direction I shared earlier.
Really good to see this direction resonating with so many of you. It was one of our favourite explorations to build, from the narrative behind it to the visual world that brought it to life.
Great work doesn’t always make the final cut, and sometimes the reason has little to do with the quality of the direction.
Curious why this one was rejected? I’ve shared the story in the first comment✨
Nazariya Living is a premium carpet and home décor brand shaped by craftsmanship, culture and the stories objects carry into our homes.
This direction brought that idea to life through a seal-inspired logo, archival textures, unexpected colours and editorial typography, creating...
Seasonal identity for Beat Film Festival. The challenge: create a concept where cinema helps audiences process a turbulent cultural and historical moment — staying relevant and resonant rather than offering escape from it.
The identity metaphor for BFF is a shared journey —
audience and festival alike searching for solid ground.
"Get on Board" is an invitation to hop into the same boat, riding together the waves of emotion sparked by film and shaped by the turbulence around us. Beat becomes the lighthouse in that storm — a sense of safety, belonging, and a moment worth sharing.
The gradient makes the whole identity special, what do you think?
