SELECTED WORK / SUPPLEMENT & FLEXIBLE PACKAGING

Design that carries
into production.

Packaging for nutrition, performance and wellness products—from developing the visual system to adapting it across formats and preparing detailed artwork when production is part of the commission.

01 / STRIKE NUTRITION — UK

One family.
Different formats.

My original packaging work covered tubular containers, single-serve sachets, sampler formats and flavor variants. A stable brand mark, flavor coding and claim structure made the range recognizable as it moved between formats.

Design problem

Keep brand hierarchy and variant recognition intact as dimensions, use cases and available panel space change.

My contribution

Original packaging and variant system for the commissioned formats. Later third-party large-pouch adaptation was outside my contracted design scope.

01A / STRIKE NUTRITION — ORIGINAL ARTWORK

From design
to the dieline.

The original working artwork shows how the packaging moved beyond mockups. These are actual layouts for the commissioned formats, with dimensions, panel relationships, product information and production guides visible.

Authorship & boundaries

I personally designed the original tubular packs, two 65 × 110 mm sachets, sampler carton and later orange flavor. The larger-format pouches subsequently developed by the client were not part of my commissioned production artwork. These supplied artwork views demonstrate my design preparation; supplier proofing and manufacturing approval remain separate stages.

02 / TAME NUTRITION + TRUESHIELD

A considered concept.
Prepared for print.

Different assignments require different stopping points. These projects show packaging taken beyond presentation imagery into organized production-ready label artwork. They also distinguish finished artwork from format studies.

TrueSHIELD — finished production-ready label design alongside brand presentation. Sensitive details obscured.

Production artwork

Typography, ingredient and claim hierarchy, precise label layouts, native working files and print exports follow confirmed specifications and approved copy.

Scope of responsibility

The client and its vendors retain product formulation, legal label compliance, manufacturing feasibility, printer proofs and final production approval.

03 / TAME NUTRITION + L8 LIFE

Make the system
adaptable.

A brand system has to work beyond its first format. These selections show adaptation into smaller sachet applications and controlled multi-product concepts, while retaining the same family resemblance.
Small-format hierarchyFlavor distinctionsConcept studies
Tame Nutrition sachet packaging concept
Tame Nutrition — exploratory sachet applications translated from the parent bottle identity. Concept, not a claim of printed sachet production.
L8 Life multi-flavor pouch packaging concepts
L8 Life — four-variant pouch direction exploring palette, typography and cross-SKU recognition. Early concept study, not finished manufacturing artwork.
HOW I WORK / REFINEMENT + PRODUCTION

The right finish is
not another redesign.

01 / REVIEW

Protect what works.

Audit the existing Figma files, source assets and approved direction. Identify inconsistencies and the gaps that still block production.

02 / RESOLVE

Finish the system.

Confirm the wordmark, flavor logic, front/back hierarchy, variants and content architecture across the actual packaging formats.

03 / PREPARE

Work to the dielines.

Build Illustrator artwork against supplied production specifications, accounting for bleed, seal areas, inks, finishes and supplier-specific layers.

04 / HANDOFF

Leave usable files.

Deliver organized native artwork, placed assets and printer-required PDF exports with clear written notes for internal and manufacturing teams.

Every supplier and substrate is different. Final color profiles, white underprint, finish layers, dieline tolerances and proofing requirements are established from the manufacturer’s specifications—not assumed from a rendered pouch image.
