Logothetis Food Packaging

Golden A' Design Award Winner 2021

Antonia Skaraki's Logothetis Food Packaging presents a masterfully orchestrated diagonal arrangement of artisanal food products that commands the visual field through its sophisticated compositional architecture, where bottles, jars, and containers of varying scales and proportions are arranged along a dynamic forty-five-degree axis that creates compelling visual rhythm and movement across the picture plane. The chromatic strategy employs a harmonious palette dominated by organic earth tones—deep olive greens suggesting pressed botanical matter, warm ambers and burnt siennas evoking honey and preserved fruits, and crisp whites establishing visual breathing room between product groupings. The illustrative label system features abstracted human figures rendered in a contemporary folk art aesthetic, their simplified forms depicted in warm flesh tones of peach, coral, and soft yellow alongside verdant greens that reference the agricultural origins of the contained products. These figures engage with oversized botanical elements—citrus fruits rendered in cadmium orange and yellow, olive branches in forest green, and abstract organic shapes—creating narrative vignettes that celebrate the relationship between human cultivation and natural abundance. The compositional schema utilizes overlapping forms to establish spatial depth while maintaining the flattened picture plane characteristic of product photography, with careful attention to figure-ground relationships that allow each package to read distinctly while contributing to the unified visual family. Lighting appears soft and directional from an upper left source, creating gentle shadows beneath each container that anchor them spatially while preserving the luminous quality of glass surfaces and the matte texture of paper labels. The typographic treatment maintains elegant restraint, with the brand identity positioned consistently across the product range in a refined sans-serif that balances contemporary sensibility with timeless sophistication, while product descriptors in both Latin and Greek scripts add cultural authenticity and geographic specificity to the visual narrative.

Mother Nature, the eternal inspiration, leads to an extraordinary design for a traditional way of doing. Logothetis Farm in Zakynthos, Greece, lets the values and importance of the legendary Greek heritage emerge in a dynamic way. The farm to table experience meets the magic of design, storytelling and branding. With a classic and clean identity, and a playful twist for today’s audience, the packaging gives a warm aura that welcomes all consumers to get it!
