HI 👋 ~ I'M DWIGHT

I'm a Graphic Designer based in Toronto, Canada. My design approach always includes wit, empathy and thought. Successful design, to me, should always consider its audience and efficiently combine both function and beauty. It should have a holistic perspective that is detail-oriented and never just black and Dwight. 😜

Pernod Ricard Kenwood Vineyards is a wine brand proud of their roots based in Sonoma County, California. They asked us to create an ownable branding for their Instagram that can be easily relatable to their rugged, raw and outdoorsy clientele. The solution was to break up their content into different franchises that highlight the brand and inform their customers more about the brand — educating them about wine jargon, the brand's environmental advances and its rich history, food recipes and more. The assets both include organic posts and instagram stories. An ownable and easily identifiable branding cue of mixing with wood grain along with variations of copper framing alludes perfectly to the brand's ethos of rugged yet premium.
