Blackbeard’s Wrapping Paper
Blackbeard Coffee Roasters in Greenville, North Carolina held a graphic design holiday wrapping paper contest. I entered the contest and was chosen as one of the two winners. I was careful to consider each element and how it represented Blackbeard. I chose to incorporate holly using berries that look similar to the mural inside the coffee shop. I position coffee beans to look like reindeer tracks. I positioned a Santa hat above the Blackbeard logo to give the illusion of a holly, jolly face. The final touch was an aerial view of a coffee cup with the coffee art of a Christmas tree. Every detail and decision was intentional.
