Branding & Packaging

Volunteer Park Café & Pantry–Seattle, WA

I love bakeries. In NYC I met some fantastic bakers, one of whom moved to Seattle & took over a beloved neighborhood standard. She hired me to create the new branding which included logo, custom typography & illustrations that reflected the spirit of the café and park, from which it took its name.

Greek Honey & Mini Spreads

In 2023, Divina launched a line of mini spreads to complement their full sized jars–these are perfect for restaurants or individual customers.

To differentiate our product from the surrounding small jar market, I created tiny illustrations to reflect the delicious flavors inside. In addition to the mini versions of the popular spreads, Divina launched honey as well.

“On-the-go” Olives

The rise in popularity of healthy, pre-portioned snacks, means your product needs to stand out on shelf–what better way than with fun, attention grabbing patterns. I designed these fun eye catching patterns for 4 different flavors of these ‘on-th-go” olives.

First Crush Olive Oil

Pressed from the very first olives harvested, giving this a peppery zing. The premiere edition of “First Crush” took home a SOFI award for Best New Product in 2023.

Divina Market Packaging Suite

With the launch of DivinaMarket.com, where customers could now buy directly from Divina, a set of packaging was needed. To stand out from all those boring Amazon boxes, we leaned on our bold rust brand colour to make a statement
