The art of effective packaging.

Blackbook Winery.

Blackbook Winery is an independent, urban winery based under the Battersea train arches in London. Their motto, “Tradition with Innovation,” reflects their mission to put British wine on the map while keeping their craft rooted in quality and creativity.

We designed a brand identity rooted in where Blackbook is based and how they make wine: urban, modern, and proudly British. The logo captures this balance: the intertwining “B” hints at the pages of a book while also echoing the arches of their winery.

Each bottle tells a story through its label, drawing inspiration from London’s history and culture. The Rosé, for instance, pays tribute to the Suffragists with an illustration of a woman whose flame-like hair references the Carreras factory facade, once a symbol of women entering the workforce during wartime. The Chardonnay label highlights London’s immigrant communities and artistic heritage, with details like geometric earrings inspired by the Tate Britain floor and a blue-haired figure carrying a flower from the Royal Opera House.

This collaboration shows how design can help a brand share its values and bring the city’s stories to life, one bottle at a time.
