Castanea Nectar
Castanea Nectar is a packaging design for chestnut honey. A watercolor illustration technique conveys the lightness of chestnut flowers and leaves. The logo uses smooth, slightly viscous lines to suggest the density and richness of chestnut honey, while strict shapes recall the strength of the chestnut tree. A small bee connects the elements of the logo. The honey is presented in a 250 gram glass jar with a label of 125 by 55 millimeters, placed in a box of 85 by 85 by 110 millimeters. The design refers to the chestnut tree as a green symbol of Kyiv.
