    Jennifer -

    What do you see as the essentials in creating a great wine label?

  2. Jennifer Cheng Says:

    Hello Richard,
    There are several elements to consider when designing a wine label and/or packaging. A few fundamental principles of design include typography, color, balance and hierarchy. Creating harmony within these design principles while ensuring the unified design properly represents the brand are most essential.

    Thank you,
    Jennifer

    Is overall packaging taken into consideration, such as innovative sustainable design?
