CLIENT

Wholly Holy Granoly stems from the group A Taste for Life, founded by Rebecca Santilli, a certified health coach, lifestylist and tastemaker.

VISION

To keep life juicy and fun through good taste in style and nutrition. Healthy doesn’t have to be boring!

Design Challenge: To find a balance between something that is wholesome, healthy and pure with elements of play, wit and humor.

Design Solution: We incorporated a citrus inspired palette with modern styled typography and figgin’ clever names for a wholesome yet playful feel. (I wish I could take credit for those oh-riginal flavor names but those were all my vivacious client.) The shape of citrus slices inspired the wave pattern that was applied to our packaging labels.
