Timeline: 2 weeks (2024)
My Role: Visual Designer
The package design for Chaps London, an African energy drink brand, was inspired by the idea of capturing the vibrant essence of African culture in every sip. My goal was to create a design that not only stood out on shelves but also told a story of heritage, energy, and pride. I began by researching traditional African patterns, colors, and symbols, drawing inspiration from tribal art, textiles, and landscapes. These elements were reimagined in a modern, bold, and geometric style to reflect the fusion of African roots with a contemporary London attitude.
The color palette played a key role each shade was chosen to represent the warmth, rhythm, and spirit of Africa, while maintaining a premium, energetic appeal. The typography was strong yet sophisticated, symbolizing confidence and power. The bottle’s tactile elements and label design were crafted to make the consumer feel connected to the story behind the drink—almost as if they were holding a piece of African culture in their hand.
Through this design, I wanted Chaps London to feel more than just an energy drink, it’s a celebration of identity, strength, and unity, bringing the soul of Africa to the world in one refreshing experience.
