Wangolina’s ‘Birds of a Feather’ range celebrates a shared passion for wine and place. Light, lively and refined, the design reflects the spritzy Moscato within. Inspired by local birdlife and the natural beauty of Mount Benson, bright, fresh illustrations bring the range to life across both bottle and RTD cans. A vibrant expression of place, inside and out.

For Shottesbrooke’s Single Vineyard Series, we evolved the existing label system to elevate the range and better express the individuality of each vineyard, while maintaining continuity with the established brand.

A more resolved packaging architecture introduces a refined hierarchy and a stronger sense of provenance across the range.

Minimal and confident in its expression, the result is a premium, site-driven system that allows the story of place to lead.

Developed in close collaboration with The Small Town Soap Company, the Australian Collection celebrates the colour, texture and character of native Australian flora.
Expressive painted artworks wrap each bar, giving every variety its own visual identity while sitting confidently within a cohesive design system. Paired with a refined brand mark and clean typographic structure, the result is a collection that feels artistic, contemporary and distinctly Australian — a natural extension of the Small Town Soap Co brand.

The 2022 Reserve Shiraz marks the next evolution of the TEAKLE Wines portfolio.

Our approach to the packaging was deliberate, building on the existing brand framework while introducing greater weight, structure, and sense of place.

The design presents a confident, composed expression that reflects both the ambition of the release and the character of the wine.

Laying the Foundation Stone, a cut above the rest

KS Design Studio helps premium wine and spirit brands evolve with clarity, craft and purpose. Our recent collaboration with Cut Hill Wall Distillery began with Foundation Stone, its first own-release whisky and a powerful expression of identity, heritage and intent. Matured in Australian red varietal and mead casks, Foundation Stone laid the groundwork for a refined brand evolution that stays true to the past while building for the future.

From the updated name and bespoke hand-drawn wall illustration to a rich coastal palette of deep teal and gold, every element was crafted to reflect the distillery’s enduring character. The result: a premium, tactile packaging suite that speaks of place, substance and distinction, from capsule to carton, designed to exceed expectations.

In 2023, we had the pleasure of rebranding Food Nation, a bold, much-loved local brand that had already enjoyed well over a decade of success under (then) owner Rachel’s creative direction.

Having created the original brand identity many years earlier, it was a rare opportunity for us to evolve something we knew so well. Together with Rachel, we explored how the business could step into a new era, keeping its playful energy, but injecting a fresh sense of fun, relevance and longevity.

Through collaborative ideation and design, we developed a vibrant new brand mark and visual language that’s organic, expressive and uniquely Food Nation — just like Rachel herself.

The full scope included:
Branding + Brandmark
Stationery + Custom Design e-Forms
Website
Signage
Apparel
Vehicle Livery
Packaging

This rebrand remains one of our favourite examples of how KSD works organically with clients to produce distinctive, personality-driven results that not only reflect who they are today, but set them up for the future.

A Sisterhood Bottled in Beauty
We’re proud to share the packaging design we created for Pure Vision's Three Sisters range — a tribute to the legacy of the Carypidis Sisters: Jackie, Teresa and Natalie.
Nestled in the sun-drenched vineyards of Virginia, South Australia, this organic, vegan-friendly range is more than just wine — it’s a celebration of family, sustainability and passion passed down from their father, Vigneron Ken Carypidis.
Designed to honour their story and stand proudly on shelf.

Label of Love

Some labels tell you what’s inside the bottle. Others carry the spirit of the land it came from.

The rebrand of Teakle Wines reveals a refined identity that is strong, considered and deeply rooted in place. Inspired by the estate’s iconic barrel-shaped cellar door, its estate-grown vineyards and the cool maritime breezes of Port Lincoln, every element of the brand reflects a deep sense of origin and intent.

Each label features hand-tooled, embossed line work that reflects the ocean’s connection to the land. Paired with a cohesive brand architecture, the range presents with strength and elegance.

This project was a true collaboration built on trust, creativity and shared vision. A privilege to bring to life with the TEAKLE Wines team and our print partners at MCC.
