Firefly was commissioned to develop the Redcastle gin branding, which included the design of a logo and packaging. The handcrafted Scottish gin was to be positioned at the premium end of the fast-growing market.
We selected a clean, modern sans serif typeface and crafted the typography to remove the crossbar from the letter ‘A’, creating a logotype truly unique to the brand. A simple, red triangle to symbolise a flag on top of a sandcastle was incorporated on top of the letter ‘A’ to further differentiate the logo and allude to a seaside theme. The logo design gives the brand a fresh and contemporary edge, setting them apart from their competitors and ensuring the packaging stands out on shelf.
The use of a Serif typeface for the descriptor below the logo type adds a touch of heritage to the design and highlights the quality of the product. This is paired with a wave keyline graphic device, which adds a playful dimension to the logo and subtly reinforces the seaside theme. Intricate illustrations of key ingredients present in the gin were incorporated into the label to reflect the fact that it is expertly handcrafted, whilst adding depth to the design.
The minimal colour palette and simplistic typography create an understated aesthetic. This helps to reinforce the premium nature of the brand and entice the target audience.

“I have worked with Ben and his agency for many years, albeit in a paper promotional capacity. After discussions on an internal project, I was thrilled when he offered to produce work for ourselves.
Ben lead the way with concept to design and produced a great piece, Rock-Paper-Scissors. Feedback from our clients has been excellent and lovely to put a smile on faces when they identify the design. I hope to do more work with Firefly in the future.”
