Warning: If you weren't hungry for a yummy snack before arriving at this post... you're about to be. Murray Brand Communications hired Michael Crampton to create a whimsical package illustration for a new Granola Snack product. The background needed to evoke the Oregon Willamette Valley countryside and stylistically it had to appear fresh, unique, and organic in texture.
-Packaging of the World "To maximize brand awareness and quickly communicate a message of "delicious and healthy on-the-go snacking", Murray Brand Communications designed Willamette Valley Granola Company's new product packaging with an emphasis on whimsical outdoor illustrations and a vibrant color palette. This design strategy serves to create a visual buzz at retail, brand block the competition and quickly draw the consumer's attention to a new product offering. The result is a visual signature that not only creates exceptional brand awareness on shelf but also intuitively conveys the brand's essence of friendly, portable, all natural, and uniquely delicious."
