INSPIRATION #1 | Stranger & Stranger

About four months ago before I had this blog I had encountered a mysteriously awesome bottle of Black Spice Rum at my neighborhood Albertson's that I use to work at during my high school years. This rum is called "the Kraken" black spiced rum but what caught my eye was the wonderfully beautiful design on the bottle, which speaks for the whole product and the design firm it was made by, Stranger & Stranger. This design firm specializes in creating identity and packaging for Beer, Wine, and Hard "A" companies alike, this place would be the ultimate dream job for me. Without further delay here are some of my favorite designs by them. All designs are done by Stranger & Stranger design firm and they have two locations, one in New York and one in London. Link to their web site I would highly suggest to look at all of their wonderful designed products .
