Designed for both athletes and physically active consumers, it highlights the product’s functional benefits in a refreshing and modern way.
The visual system emphasizes clarity, freshness, and energy, with strong focus on key claims (20g protein, zero fat) in a clean and easy-to-read layout. The design system is fully adaptable across multiple flavors, ensuring brand consistency while allowing flexibility for product line extensions.
As a specialist in beverage and supplement packaging, my approach balances commercial appeal, shelf impact, and consumer trust to deliver designs that connect with the target audience.")

The hand-drawn illustrated style features a custom maneki-neko character surrounded by authentic Japanese motifs, creating exceptional shelf presence and strong e-commerce appeal.
This project reflects my expertise in illustrated packaging design, beverage branding, and custom iconography development. The central lucky cat mascot integrates with a traditional matcha bowl while custom strawberry iconography communicate flavor. Every visual element was carefully crafted to honor Japanese design principles while appealing to Western consumers' growing interest in wellness and specialty teas.

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/158/158053/attachment_158053949 "A fun, dreamy packaging design for Hydrocolloid Patches aimed at a younger skincare audience.
I created custom illustrations for the Moon character and constellations, icons for Vegan, Cruelty Free and Dermatologist Tested, and a soft pastel galaxy theme to reflect the gentle but effective nature of the product. Special finishes like Spot UV, holographic substrate and a matte base add tactile appeal and shelf presence, while keeping it strong for e-commerce shops such as Amazon.
Beyond the packaging design itself, I created lifestyle and aspirational mockups to present the product in context. This is a playful yet professional design that stands out and builds trust at a glance.")

The focal point is a carefully hand-drawn botanical illustration of the Reishi mushroom, highlighting its natural texture and rich earthy tones. The minimalistic layout, bold typography, and structured icon system ensure clarity and premium shelf appeal.

The packaging features a custom hand-drawn illustration, emphasizing a friendly, artisanal feel while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic. The redesign extends across the entire product line, which includes Almond, Coconut, and Oat variants, plus an organic edition.

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/159/159003/attachment_159003294 "Packaging design created for a Mexican-inspired seasoning brand targeting the U.S. retail market.
The goal was to develop a bold, shelf-ready label that feels vibrant, modern, and authentic, standing out in a competitive grocery aisle while clearly communicating flavor and quality.
I designed the full label layout (front, back, and sides), custom icons, badges, AI-assisted illustrations and marketing-oriented visuals, with compliance to FDA guidelines, strong information hierarchy, and a visually impactful product shot that speaks directly to the target audience.
The final result is a professional, print-ready design that converts, whether on a retail shelf or an online store.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/148/148034/attachment_148034044 "I created a label for Westside, a Canadian sauce brand that specializes in artisan-made sauces. The brand needed a label upgrade to better showcase their products in stores and to comply with packaging regulations. To make it easier for customers to identify the various flavors, I used a visually bold font that was highlighted with gold foil. In addition, I included a heat meter at the bottom of the label to convey this important information and organized the layout in a way that effectively communicates both marketing and mandatory information.")

The label is hand-illustrated using elements and an aesthetic typically found in traditional Asian culture and products. Yet, it has been adapted to the Western consumer market. It is designed to be printed in a single ink and applied directly onto the bottle.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157630/attachment_157630590 "This packaging design was created for Sliphy, a wellness brand focused on sleep enhancement and breathing optimization. The client required a modern, premium-looking pouch for their mouth tape product, which aids in nasal breathing and improves sleep quality.
The design features a minimalist layout with a clean, calming aesthetic, using soft gradients and ample negative space to communicate tranquility and health. The custom icon set highlights the product’s three main benefits: Promotes Nasal Breathing, Improves Sleep Quality, and Enhances Oxygen Intake. A consistent typographic system ensures clarity while reinforcing the brand’s focus on simplicity and recovery.
This solution stands out in the growing sleep-aid market by balancing professionalism and approachability, perfectly aligning with the brand’s values of trust, recovery, and well-being.")

I opted for a modern and minimalist approach, incorporating subtle organic touches like custom leaf illustrations and icons. The main typography features a slightly rough style to contrast with the clean and bold supporting fonts.")
Acerca de
I don’t just make products look good, I make them make sense.
Every decision supports the message, the product, and the people behind it. I believe good packaging should be clear, compelling, and emotionally connected, not just stylish for the sake of it.
I work best with clients who care about their product and their users, bringing creativity and precision to the process, and I value honest, long-term collaborations built on trust and shared purpose.
Let’s create packaging that speaks.
