They asked us to find a way to creatively incorporate their beloved Scottish Fold cats – some iconic entertainers from their travels to the Middle Eastand Indian papadum packaging. It was a lot to consider for such a small area, but we loved the idea of bringing it all together.

When it came time to develop the 6-pack and case carton packaging, we borrowed both the color and thematic inspiration from the 12oz cans and amped it up. The design skewed towards a retro illustration style with vintage Indian matchbooks as guideposts for the drawings. We sourced multi-eyed maneki-neko cats, gold-toothed shamans, tigers and an all-seeing eye illustration from artist Conor Nolan and loaded everything up with super-saturated hues. Purposely off-register plates and typography give the pieces an intentionally imperfect look.
