SMS added life and drew awareness to Bacardi's Grey Goose Vodka brand through a chic and innovative yet practical display. Because Grey Goose boxes are taller than they are wide, the product tended to fall over in stores. In order to retain the aesthetic appeal of the packaging, SMS developed attractive trays that successfully hold the product in place without interfering with the box design.
We used a chrome plated loop pull turned on its side for a unique outfit staging hook. Remember, black is thinning.
When Will Bryant and Mark Menjivar join forces, terrific things happen. Terrific chipboard things, to be specific.
Will and Mark worked together to create this identity system for the youth advocacy arm of Texas RioGrande Legal Aid (TRLA). Mark works with TRLA to offer aid to youth experiencing homelessness. He got in touch with Will to help him create a series of print items that could be at once beautiful, useful and durable. From that collaboration came three print pieces: a business card, a pocket postcard, and a Scout Book with custom-printed interiors that acts as a Youth Rights Booklet. Will also did the lettering and design for the snazzy TRLA Youth website. Chipboard internet? We’re into it.
In addition to being a chance to create a set of fun printed pieces, Will looks at this collaboration as an opportunity to help out: ”Enabling youth [with] the opportunity to better their circumstances is huge! Most of the kids come from rough backgrounds, so having access to this knowledge empowers them and provides hope for the future,” he told us. “It’s a blessing to be involved with a project that does this.”

From Dave Selden, the creator of 33 Bottles of Beer and 33 Bottles of Wine, with a little help from Chris Tacy and Brent Fortune, comes 33 Cups of Coffee. And none too soon as the Winter months are in full swing! Nothing comes close to a piping hot cup of coffee when it’s chilly out.
In true 33 Books fashion, this journal comes complete with a flavor wheel, demystifier, and of course, a little something in the ink! That’s right, a few drops of coffee were added to the ink during the printing of this book.
So head over to your favorite coffee shop or brew some up at home and start your coffee-tasting adventure with this great journal in hand!
