I started with a projector and a pencil to trace the outlines. Then I went on with a thin white marker to enhance the outlines. Three layers of white ink later and the foundation was done. As a final touch I chose to use stippling technique for the shading, to get a nice but rugged gradient.

Thanks to Niklas Bäversten for the projector and Erik Herrström for the camera. Cheers guys!

This was an assignment for school where I was asked to design some sort of packaging — so I decided to make a fictional beer label. The reason that I wanted to make a beer label was because I like the format of the bottle and I wanted to experiment with that. Water, malt, hops & yeast is an organic lager made for design-conscious people who also think about the environment.

The label on the front is a customized hand-drawn version of the beautiful typeface Phaeton with lots of soft curves to enhance the ecological feeling of the label. For the copy on the back I've used Underware's typeface Dolly.

"The Phraseology Project is meant to be a running experiment in typography. It is meant to be a framework for exercise and practice in Typography. We try our best to come up with our best work always but more importantly we value practice and healthy process. In other words, these pieces aren't perfect. But they are honest. We celebrate the process of design and creativity in all of its' outcomes." - Drew Melton
