This signage and stationery design is for a Dublin gin with Chinese-inspired flavors, made by Annie Atkins. The layout and typography reflect the traditional aesthetic of woodblock and letterpress posters, aligning with the Chinnery Spirits brand. The text is arranged in a visually engaging hierarchy, with bold serif and sans-serif fonts in black and red, alternating for emphasis. Key phrases such as “Imperial China” and “Georgian Dublin” are prominently highlighted in red, while detailed text uses a classic serif font. Decorative horizontal lines and a stylized flourish near the bottom further evoke historical design traditions.
The reference to George Chinnery, a well-off portrait artist who sailed with the East India Company, enhances the visual narrative, blending heritage and styles of old with a modern made poster.
