About The Treasure of Zbojniks Etiketa za bocu
Zbojničko blago je dizajn etikete za voćne destilate Zbojnicka. Zbojnicka na slovačkom znači ono što pripada zbojniku. Zbojnici su bili razbojnici koji su sudjelovali u pobunama protiv kmetstva, a ljudi su vjerovali da su skrivali blago u slovačkim planinama. Etiketa predstavlja destilate kao zbojničko blago. Na vrhu je prikazana planina Velky Rozsutec, a slovački ornamenti iz različitih regija uokviruju dizajn. Ilustracije u stilu gravure tiskane su u dvije boje na mat krem papiru mekane teksture. Naziv proizvoda izveden je zlatnim reljefnim tiskom.

- Unique Properties

People believed that they have hidden numerous treasures in the Slovak mountains. Zbojnicka distillates are the true treasure of Zbojniks - this was the main idea in design creation. Each element of the label has its significance and tells unique stories from Slovak folklore.

- Production Technology
- The label is printed on a glass bottle. Matte creme paper with a soft texture was chosen in order to evoke the feel of a natural and home-made product. The engraving-stylized illustrations create an impression of being transported into the past. The combination of Slovak ornaments from different regions enhances the image of a truly local, traditional product. The label is created in two colors, with only the name of the product, “Zbojnicka”, differing in terms of its colour and the printing technique. For it, gold embossing is used, which further associates the product with the treasures of Zbojniks.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge was to create a unique and pronounced character and mood for the brand, to make the product distinguishable from its competitors, to attract attention to the product and facilitate a dialogue between the brand and the consumers, and at the same time to preserve and convey Slovak culture and traditions.
- Inspiration
- People believed that Zbojniks have hidden their treasures on Velky Rozsutec mountain (this mountain is depicted at the top of the label). Traditionally, it is assumed that Zbojniks were hiding the gold stolen from the feudal lords in the mountains. But what else could be valuable for the mighty robbers? A good drink, of course, which is often valued more than any gold. The folk stories of Zbojniks - Slovak robbers - thus became the main source of inspiration for the label design.
- Project Duration
- The project was launched on 1.4.2020 on the Slovak off-trade market (hypermarkets, supermarkets, wines & spirits shops, etc.).
- Operation Flow
- The work is displayed on the off-trade market (hypermarkets, supermarkets, wines & spirits shops, etc.). Due to its unique design and the story behind it, it manages to establish a dialogue between the the brand and the consumers, and at the same time, preserve and convey Slovak culture and traditions.
