Olive oil is a classic example. People expect to see sun-bleached labels. Line drawings of olive branches. Terracotta tones. Hand-lettered clues that the makers go through generations of the same family.<\/p>\n<p>At the other extreme, they might be presented with something completely different. Sparse minimalism. Knowingly lo-fi packaging. Basic typography. All of which might look wonderfully cool and cutting-edge. Yet you wonder: will everyone just breeze past it on the supermarket shelf, unaware that it even is olive oil?<\/p>\n<p>This is important because right now, olive oil is having a moment, with foodies talking about it the way they once talked about coffee beans, and chefs and writers comparing different products like fine wines. In this fevered atmosphere, how on earth can you stand out?<\/p>\n<figure class=\"article-media not-prose -mx-6 my-12 space-y-2 md:mx-0 md:my-16\"><video autoplay=\"\" loop=\"\" muted=\"\" playsinline=\"\" class=\"w-full\"><source src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c42c5b05-51b1-4c47-9a86-21884e6fb78c\/698ef2a0f8b16278b83b8db0a0fe088d0c607ebf.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\"\/><\/video><\/figure>\n<div class=\"article-media not-prose -mx-6 my-12 grid gap-6 md:mx-0 md:my-16 md:grid-cols-2\">\n<figure class=\"space-y-2\" itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-medium.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-thumb.webp 320w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-small.webp 640w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-medium.webp 1280w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-large.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 768px) 466px, 100vw\" alt=\"Dark green bottle of Drzzl extra virgin olive oil with orange text and green cap against a vibrant orange background\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"bg-cream-900 h-auto w-full\" width=\"2126\" height=\"2658\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/b9d86e15-cb21-4b64-983a-bf4d7e0f5d45\/conversions\/ac6e6e05eb8e0f736fdc4a926d6a32c03f6966a9-medium.webp\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"2126\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"2658\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"space-y-2\" itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-medium.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-thumb.webp 320w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-small.webp 640w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-medium.webp 1280w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-large.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 768px) 466px, 100vw\" alt=\"Dark green bottle of Drzzl extra virgin olive oil with yellow and orange lettering on a bright yellow background\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"bg-cream-900 h-auto w-full\" width=\"2126\" height=\"2658\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/c36a2dee-69ed-47f5-8f0b-dfa708b20ca0\/conversions\/c1f65336320ffb0546b6c0b58a0d8374eef20a1a-medium.webp\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"2126\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"2658\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>London branding agency <a href=\"https:\/\/www.derekanderic.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Derek&amp;Eric<\/a> was tasked with crafting an identity for Drzzl, a new olive oil brand from Natalia Rudin, the author and recipe developer behind Nats Nourishments and its 1.6 million-strong following on Instagram. And what they&#8217;ve come up with is pretty unique.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no ageing grandmother or rolling Tuscan hills. But there&#8217;s also no stark minimalism, aching to be considered cool. In their palace, we see a squeezy bottle, a clash of citrus colours and a wordmark that looks like it&#8217;s been poured. Not drawn.<\/p>\n<h2>Who&#8217;s it for?<\/h2>\n<p>The audience for this brand is very specific: a growing movement of home chefs who take cooking seriously but not themselves. These food enthusiasts are seeking pantry staples that look as good on a dinner party table as they taste in the food.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Olive oil has become a seriously crowded category, with lots of brands using the same visual ingredients,&#8221; explains Adam Swan, creative partner at Derek&amp;Eric. &#8220;We wanted to create something that felt completely different. Natalia had a fantastic product and bags of personality. Our challenge was to bottle that energy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The oil is made from Italian Coratina olives, a variety known for being intense and peppery, and the agency set out to reflect that fiery character, tempered by a chef&#8217;s sense of finesse.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"article-media not-prose -mx-6 my-12 space-y-2 md:mx-0 md:my-16\"><video autoplay=\"\" loop=\"\" muted=\"\" playsinline=\"\" class=\"w-full\"><source src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/4d5b84b6-40f1-453d-a0ef-44182a39b21c\/87297b9d04a088d53f872c9cbd1dc342dee8c7a2.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\"\/><\/video><\/figure>\n<div class=\"article-media not-prose -mx-6 my-12 grid gap-6 md:mx-0 md:my-16 md:grid-cols-2\">\n<figure class=\"space-y-2\" itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-medium.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-thumb.webp 320w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-small.webp 640w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-medium.webp 1280w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-large.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 768px) 466px, 100vw\" alt=\"Person in white t-shirt holding four dark green Drzzl olive oil bottles with yellow text and green caps\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"bg-cream-900 h-auto w-full\" width=\"3780\" height=\"2126\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/2d2b8208-5a17-4afb-b99c-879b939798f1\/conversions\/0bb682c2ce97aca2e5043abca343c2f6ffd9d0c4-medium.webp\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"3780\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"2126\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"space-y-2\" itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-medium.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-thumb.webp 320w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-small.webp 640w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-medium.webp 1280w, https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-large.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 768px) 466px, 100vw\" alt=\"Bottle of Drzzl olive oil with yellow label tucked into the back pocket of blue jeans worn by a person in a white top\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"bg-cream-900 h-auto w-full\" width=\"3780\" height=\"2126\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/media.creativeboom.com\/3ae50112-eb3a-4d2b-9b87-6763719b3488\/conversions\/f88ed8bff9e125e27858c872c873451345146164-medium.webp\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"3780\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"2126\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>They began by stripping everything back and allowing the simple pleasure of drizzling great olive oil to inspire the entire identity.<\/p>\n<h2>Movement and rhythm<\/h2>\n<p>The centrepiece is the logo, created in partnership with typography specialists <a href=\"https:\/\/studio-drama.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Studio Drama<\/a>. It&#8217;s built from loose, organic letterforms, with the two Zs stacked on top of each other to emulate the sense of oil leaving a nozzle.<\/p>\n<p>That sense of fluidity can also be seen in the motif: a zigzag squiggle that runs down the side of each label, like a line of oil squeezed across a plate. It works brilliantly well, too, on custom packing tape.<\/p>\n<p>The overall palette pairs a deep leafy green with zingy orange and yellow: a refreshingly distinct combo in a sector riven by sameness. There are two oils: Table, in orange, is &#8220;robust and peppery, designed for dressing&#8221;, while Kitchen, in yellow, is &#8220;smooth and versatile, designed for cooking&#8221;. It&#8217;s a clearly defined split, and colour-coding it this clearly means you won&#8217;t accidentally fry an egg in your dressing oil.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-media not-prose -mx-6 my-12 grid
