Evervess Soda Water is a packaging design for a range of carbonated sodas and tonics.

Design Details

Unique Properties
Evervess Soda is a legacy brand with nearly 80 years of heritage. In preparation for its unified launch in China, we modernized the visual identity for the nuances of this very important market. Evervess represents a product category that is seeing a huge uptick in the Chinese market. The brand has bright, carbonated sodas and tonics that can be mixed in cocktails or enjoyed on their own for some fizzy refreshment.
Inspiration
The historic branding had a heaviness that spoke to indulgence, but we wanted to clearly communicate the light and fizzy refreshment of the product line. After cleansing the palate of the packaging, we added a minimal black and teal graphic element. A fountain. A symbol of energy, refreshment and renewal. An uplifting element designed to cue lightness and the products gentle fizz.
