The Book of Stranger

desicreative
desicreative – Indian Advertising Creative Blog and Community (beta 1.4)

Twenty years is a long time in studio years and so we thought we’d celebrate the year with something a little less frivolous than our typical offering. The Book of Stranger features a few hundred of the four and a half thousand jobs we’ve done in that time and the cover, inspired a little by Hieronymous Bosch features all of them. We were looking for appropriate packaging and the human skin covered books of the Bosch era seemed appropriate. Just kidding, it’s not human. It is skin though.
The book is available for sale on Stranger & Stranger’s online shop: bit.ly/strangerSHOP

Stranger & Stranger is a packaging design and branding company specialising in alcoholic drinks. Since 1994 we’ve been creating successful products and brands that people just need to own. It’s a very dark art. Some clients want awards and PR, and some people contact us with nothing more than sheer enthusiasm. We define niches, brand strategies, names, create bespoke bottles, labels, packs, marketing platforms and collateral. We label up about a billion units a year in one of the toughest markets around, and from the low-cost supermarket’s own label wine to the highest end premium spirits, we add value, always increase sales, and add a huge ROI onto any balance sheet.
DON’T FIT IN, STAND OUT ™
