P&W wins Silver Pentaward

We are excited to announce that we’ve just won a Silver Pentaward for our Tesco Spanish Orange Juice range.
 A prestigious awards program dedicated exclusively to Packaging Design, judged and awarded by an international panel composed of 12 packaging design professionals” 
The goal was to create a design solution that stood out amongst other ordinary orange juice, an eye catching and unique solution for this specialty juice. Orange juice is a crowded category, complex and difficult to shop, for a specialty juice to thrive it needs to be identifiable on shelf.
The design reflects the origin of the oranges whilst keeping it light hearted and distinctive from the array of other orange juices in the fixture – the idea of the Matador was used to create an iconic symbol - integrating the photographic orange within the illustrations for a sense of fun and still differentiating between the smooth and with bits orange juice varieties. It also had to have the ability to communicate strongly within the juice category, which is all about refreshment and flavor.
"We think the highly creative solution is eye catching and distinctive, the design wraps around the pack truly bringing the character to life “ –P&W

A-Z | Street Stencils

Candy Chang is a unique mix of graphic designer, urban planner, and architect with an ultimate goal of improving local communities with her environmental designs. 
She is known for street stenciling public spaces with thought-provoking messages, maps, and other helpful graphics. Her project called Sidewalk Psychiatry, was designed to prompt pedestrians to "do a little self-reflecting in transit". 

On the pavement of New York City, she stenciled questions such as "Do you think that went well?" and "Does she know how you feel?" with temporary spray chalk.  
On Governors Island in New York City, she used the same stenciling process to bring both entertaining and important historical facts to the sidewalks.

 

In Chinatown you will find a stencil design on the sidewalk that reads "This would be a nice place for a tree". This was her contribution to the "new MillionTreesNYC program, where they are aiming to plant one million new trees in the next decade".
She proposed a navigation system for the Brooklyn Bridge as the area is difficult to navigate for visitors and tourists. Her simple graphics would make the tourist hot spot a fun place to explore.
