The problem
A charter herbal tea brand needed an identity and packaging system that could convey handcrafted, Old World integrity across 14 distinct blends — while staying within a tight print budget and standing out in both online marketplaces and Farmer's Market shelves.
My role
Brand & Packaging Designer
- Led brand identity development from name story through final print production.
- Designed a scalable packaging system for 14 unique tea blends with a shared visual language.
- Partnered directly with the client and print vendor to keep all 14 SKUs within budget.
- Sourced imagery and typography that combined Old World European damask with classic Indian decorative motifs.
Process
- Step 01
Name & meaning
The identity was rooted in the Sanskrit word Siddhi — a miraculous power imparted by intense meditation — reframed as a message of restorative wellness rather than a health claim.
- Step 02
Signature mark
A three-leaf icon above the wordmark signals Tulsi, the shared herb across all 14 blends, giving the line a unifying visual anchor.
- Step 03
Visual system
Damask backgrounds and hand-lettered blend names combine European Old World elegance with classic Indian decorative accents, color-coded by blend for shelf recognition.
- Step 04
Production partnership
Worked hand-in-hand with the client and print vendor to specify materials, color, and finishes that hit quality targets within a lean budget across 14 SKUs.

Measurable results
Great packaging is a system, not a single design. Building 14 blends on one visual chassis taught me how much brand equity comes from restraint — a shared mark, palette logic, and typography that let each product feel special without breaking the family.
