We are charmed by his collection and we’re impressed with his work. George has lots of amazing creations but we have decided to showcase his Life Juices Repackaging designs.
The Life Juices juice line has been launched and has not managed to make its presence felt on the market shelf since because of its usual conventional designs — oversized fruits, bursting open with juiciness and vibrancy. With that, they finally decided to redesign their entire line of packaging. Life Juices chose to work with George, who would be responsible with creating a custom illustration for each of the ten juices in their line. The key concept was to design visually captivating stories about the fruit flavors and colors.
