This took about 4 hours, including research...which variation is preferred? The paper background was an afterthought, I think it relates well to the old, illustrative aspect of the design and provides a good contrast to the modern, sans serif typeface. However it does muddy the design a little bit, especially in the color variation. I prefer the black/paper & the color/white combination's.
My favorites are the black/paper and black/white ones. I would like the color/white one but the word Allain looks too black or not as fitting next to the red..personal opinion.
ReplyDeleteI like the wine idea!
I wouldn't say it muddles the design in color - the sheen really helps and it's a further step in combining the respected, antiquated style with the bold, modern font and print.
ReplyDeleteFor your next wine label, maybe you should try a different size than the large rectangle with the title card.

I think that the black works better on the paper. The red and the paper almost start to blend, although the sheen does help.
ReplyDeleteI think that if you were actually going to use this the red on the white would probably be the best choice.
I like the black label on the paper background and the red label on white background, but I agree with Christina in that the black on the red label stands out a bit much. If you made the label red, it would probably be more eye-catching.
