A shopper campaign that took Rubicon from the shelf edge to station concourses and airport terminals.
The brief

Rubicon's drinks are packed with exotic fruit, and the brand is "Made of Different Stuff". The 2024 shopper campaign needed to bottle that feeling, an unstoppable sunshine, and make it work everywhere from a shelf barker to a wall-sized station hoarding.

The idea

Working within the campaign's art direction, I designed the key visual. Its backbone is a ribbon of juice I illustrated by hand, sweeping through the frame and carrying the fruit, bottles and people with it. It gives every layout energy and leads the eye from headline to product.

I selected and cut out every fruit and figure, then built the toolkit that took it across every format.
