Charles, Meet Darkie

Client: The Brand Union, Cape Town

Design for a collaborative promotion from SAB Castle Lager and Darkie, a local fashion label.

A challenge was coming up with a design that incorporated elements of these visually disparate brands without detracting from either. Elements included packaging with a die cut to show product, magazine advertisement and promotional mailer.

The design borrows from the eclectic African visual language and patterns formed a large component of the design.
