The ideal candidate is adept at translating narrative and provenance into compelling design, comfortable working remotely, and available for a single project with the possibility of future assignments.

  • Design a signature luxury bottle (“The Vessel”) for both still and sparkling water.
  • Develop a removable “Source Sleeve” system to highlight each water’s unique origin and narrative.
  • Create an “Archive Slipcase” outer packaging, drawing inspiration from book or museum case designs.
  • Establish a supporting brand identity, including logo, typography, color palette, and certificate of authenticity.
  • Present three distinct bottle concepts as the initial deliverable.

Qualifications

  • Proficiency in industry-standard design software (e.g., Adobe Creative Suite, 3D modeling tools).
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to present concepts clearly.
  • Comfortable working remotely and independently, with availability for a single project and potential follow-up work.
