About Roberto Terrinoni

I think in creative and communication contexts every request outlines a unique way which involves experts ready to express customer’s needs. Thanks to increasing national connections we’re ready to find the best professional man in every situation instead of an interior cooperation which could monopolize the style and touches of everything we product. As it’s visible between the work credits we try to find the photographer, the illustrator, the programmer, the 3D designer or the video maker with the best style and quality for the situation, coordinating everything.

Design Details

Unique Properties
As well as being elegant and versatile, the collage technique allows to insert some visual elements that highlight the identity of the product, such as references to the meaning of the name, to the beer typology and to its ingredients. The logo design, which represents the corporate identity, is based on a simple shape. This shape was reproduced on the die-cut of the labels and on the symbol system of every single beer using a customization which is both colourful and heraldic.
Inspiration
Each label tells a story. This story is made of flavors, legends, qualities, references and ideas that complete the experience of tasting these ice-cold beers. A very complex visual architecture alternates elements that tell the story of the product (the photographic parts in collage style, the colors and the heraldic pictogram) to others that underline the brand identity (the setting, typography and frequent use of the basic form of the brand).
Research
At the dawn of the success of craft beer in Italy, the brief asked to approach the communicative tone of wine while maintaining some distinctive traits of beer. Being a product designed to be enjoyed at the table, it required the 75 cl format. The target had to be adjusted to the price of the craft, a much higher one compared to most industrial beers. The brand is ppredominant in the world of craft beers and it shows on the label, which is typical of an industrial beer, so to benefit the product and its identity.
Challenge
The main challenge was facing a very fresh market in Italy: there were no know-how, no rules, only intuitions. Mixing the results of market research conducted abroad with the forecasts of the Italian demand was the most challenging task.
Realization and Technology
Paper, off-set print, screen printing polishing
Operation and Interaction
This label tells a story that the master brewer Luciano Landolfi manages to express with every single beer; a tale of processes, ingredients and cultural roots. The real challenge was to convey all these concepts with a small label.
Project Duration and Location
This project was born in 2015 in Latina, in Central Italy. A new brewery was starting to get attention and growing rapidly. A year after its foundation, it decided to reset the communication of the brand and restyle three labels from its selection of beers. The collaboration still goes on today and it has given birth to a range 22 labels; the goal is to reach 30 by the end of 2020. Today the brewery is considered a rising star in the Italian and international scene of craft beer.
