Aegir Aqua: Brand Identity, Packaging & 3D

Aegir Aqua required more than a standalone logo. The project needed a complete visual system that could work consistently across physical packaging, digital communication, presentations, product imagery, and the website.

I approached the project as one connected brand ecosystem. Instead of designing the logo, packaging, and 3D visuals as separate deliverables, each stage was developed to support the next and create a recognizable identity across every touchpoint.

For a product-led water brand, the identity has to perform at several different scales. It needs to remain recognizable as a logo, feel confident on physical packaging, hold up in close-up product imagery, and provide enough flexibility for presentations, marketing assets, and digital experiences.

The main challenge was creating a system that felt clean and distinctive without becoming visually overcomplicated. The packaging would become one of the most visible expressions of Aegir Aqua, so the identity had to be designed with real product application in mind from the beginning.

I developed the Aegir Aqua identity from the ground up, establishing the core visual language before extending it into the wider system.

The work included logo development and refinement, typography selection, color direction, spacing, hierarchy, and rules for how the identity should behave across different applications.

The objective was to create a visual foundation that could be recognized quickly while remaining flexible enough to support future brand growth.

Rather than treating the logo as the finished product, I used it as the starting point for a broader identity system.

Once the identity direction was established, I translated it into the physical product.

The packaging needed to balance brand recognition with practical product communication. I developed the composition, typography hierarchy, logo placement, color application, and information structure so the pack could work both as a physical product and as a strong visual asset in digital marketing.

The packaging process included:

Packaging composition and hierarchy

Logo positioning and scale

Typography and information structure

Brand color application

Product information placement

Consistency across the complete pack

Production-oriented artwork preparation

The goal was to make the packaging feel like a natural extension of the identity rather than a separate design layer.

After the packaging direction was established, I moved into 3D production to visualize the product realistically.

Using Blender and Cinema 4D, I created product mockups that allowed the packaging to be evaluated in context and presented professionally before relying on finished product photography.

The 3D stage involved working with product form, materials, label placement, lighting, camera angles, reflections, and presentation composition.

Adobe Photoshop was then used for compositing, cleanup, refinement, and final presentation.

These visuals created a reusable product-image library that could support presentations, marketing assets, the website, and future launch material.

A key part of the project was maintaining continuity between every deliverable.

The identity informed the packaging. The packaging informed the 3D presentation. Those assets then became part of the presentation deck and later the website.

This allowed Aegir Aqua to build outward from one clear visual foundation instead of accumulating disconnected creative assets.

I was responsible for the creative development and execution across:

Logo design and refinement

Brand identity development

Typography and visual hierarchy

Color direction

Packaging design

Packaging artwork

Brand application

3D modeling

Product visualization

Lighting and rendering

Product mockups

Photoshop compositing and finishing

Adobe Illustrator · Canva · Blender · Cinema 4D · Adobe Photoshop

The final result is a cohesive visual foundation that allows Aegir Aqua to move consistently between physical and digital environments.

What began as a logo and identity project developed into a connected brand system spanning packaging, realistic 3D product presentation, business communication, and digital execution.

This foundation later carried directly into the Aegir Aqua presentation deck and website, helping the brand maintain a consistent visual language across every major touchpoint.
