Brickstone's Rio De Oro needed a premium olive oil label that could compete on luxury retail shelves — the brief demanded Greek heritage, artisanal craft, and a timeless elegance that generic stock-based designs couldn't deliver.
I participated in a contest they organized on a freelance platform, and designed a label built around a custom fine-line illustrated Greek goddess with detailed hatching technique, set against a soft watercolor background in muted aqua and cream tones, with strategic gold foil accents on the logotype and band — balancing the classical and the refined without tipping into ornate or heavy. The result was a label system that works across both 250ml and 500ml glass bottles, photographed across three distinct lifestyle environments that together position Rio De Oro clearly in the premium, artisanal olive oil market.
