Recreation Bondi Beach Natural Fragrances by Angela Spindler

Home > Winners > #75724




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Recreation Bondi Beach

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Natural Fragrances

INSPIRATION:
The brand mark embodies female empowerment. The stylised R is inspired by the iconic image of the woman sleeve rolled up, from the WWII We Can Do It campaign.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The R, the visual shorthand for Recreation dominates the packaging as the brands hallmark of confidence. The infill of the mark, a subtle pink, blue and yellow graduation, echoes the twilight beach skies of Bondi. With the bottle design we explored the intrinsic beauty of basic geometry. Arriving at a bottle that is a softened hexagon. The solid clear pedestal gives it visual gravitas. The vertical chime lines give the bottle a soft rhythm and the illusion that it is a much rounder shape.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
The fragrances are activated via an atomizer. The smaller 10ml bottles are roll-on.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
October 2017-December 2018 Sydney, Australia

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:
Packaging Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:
The debossed aluminium cap sits flush against the bottles’ shoulder, assisting with optimising the overall proportions. The base is also debossed with the R as a point of unexpected discovery for the consumer. The boxes are printed CMYK on uncoated stock, with two spot colours, spot gloss UV and an all over satin aqueous varnish. The spot gloss afforded a subtle glint that appears and disappears according to the angle at which the box is seen. Again, a subtle nod to the unique beach light as it dances across various surfaces.

SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:
Box dimensions: 125mm (H) x 102mm (W) x 62mm (D) Bottle:73mm (H) x 52mm (W)

TAGS:
Fragrance packaging, Natural fragrance packaging, Bespoke bottle, Branding and Packaging Design, Packaging Design, Branding Design, Form Design, Australian Packaging Design,

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The word mark uses rigorously even fine line typography that uses geometric shapes and clear definition. An asymmetric layout has been purposefully used to give the packaging sufficient tension for the three visual elements to work both together and in isolation within the space. The vertical type describing the fragrance is through its orientation and font style given a unique visible position without it overshadowing the brand mark elements.

CHALLENGE:
The manufacture of the bottle was the most challenging along with orbital printing on multiple surfaces that were not perfectly flat.

I'm so impressed with this packaging design for natural fragrances. The attention to detail and the overall look and feel of the design is stunning. The colors are so vibrant, and the elements used to represent the beach are beautiful. The use of typography and illustrations to convey the theme of the product is thoughtful and inspiring. It's clear that a lot of time and effort went into creating this packaging, and it really pays off. It's a great example of how design can be used to create an emotional connection with the audience. I'm so proud of this work, and it's an honor to be able to celebrate the success of this design. Congratulations to Angela Spindler for winning the A' Design Award!

I am absolutely in awe of the exquisite packaging design for Recreation Bondi Beach. It is clear that the designer has put a lot of thought and consideration into the creation of this product. The brand mark is incredibly empowering, and the visuals of the twilight beach skies of Bondi provide a beautiful backdrop for the design. The use of basic geometry to create a softened hexagon bottle is both visually striking and original. The vertical chime lines give the bottle a lovely rhythm, while the clear pedestal adds to its visual impact. The word mark is elegant and sophisticated, and the asymmetric layout gives the packaging an impressive tension. Finally, the orbital printing on the multiple surfaces must have been a challenge to create, and the resulting product is stunning. It is no surprise that this design has won the A' Design Award.

We can all appreciate an award-winning design that epitomizes female empowerment. Angela Spindler's "Recreation Bondi Beach" packaging design is the perfect example of how design can be used to convey a powerful message. Through the use of the iconic "We Can Do It" symbol, the stylized R is a reminder of the power and strength of women. The colors and textures used on the packaging also evoke a feeling of natural beauty and serenity. This is truly a stunning work of design that deserves to be celebrated.

This award-winning work is a truly inspiring example of packaging design. Its unique brand mark, the use of geometric shapes and the combination of colors and textures evoke the twilight beach skies of Bondi. The debossed aluminium cap, the spot gloss UV and the all-over satin aqueous varnish combine to create a subtle glint that really catches the eye. The research and manufacture of the bottle was no easy feat, but the result is a stunning design that captures the essence of the natural fragrances it contains.

It's an absolute pleasure to be able to celebrate Angela Spindler's success in winning the A' Design Award for their work titled "Recreation Bondi Beach". The way this design incorporates the brand elements with subtle visual cues to the beach skylines of Bondi is truly remarkable. The use of basic geometrical shapes to create a soft hexagonal bottle design gives it an interesting and eye-catching look, while the vertical lines provide it with a unique rhythm. The brand mark is also very powerful, embodying female empowerment. The use of even fine line typography and geometric shapes gives it a unique position without overshadowing the other elements. Moreover, the asymmetric layout adds tension to the design, creating a visually pleasing piece that works together and in isolation. It's amazing to see how Angela Spindler has creatively combined the various elements to create an award-winning work that stands out and captures the essence of the product. It's no wonder why this design was recognised and praised, and it's an absolute honour to be able to celebrate such a fantastic work.
