Seasonal Catalog Cover Design

Product-Focused Art Direction for Wine & Spirits Marketing Catalogs

Overview

This project involved designing a series of marketing catalog covers to introduce seasonal editions of Monsieur Touton Selection’s trade catalog. Each cover needed to visually communicate the theme of the edition while highlighting featured products and maintaining brand consistency across the publication series.

The covers serve as the first visual touchpoint for distributors, retailers, and hospitality buyers, making it essential that each design immediately communicates both the catalog theme and the premium nature of the products.

Challenge

Each edition required a distinct visual identity while still feeling like part of the same catalog system. The designs needed to:

Capture attention in both print and digital formats

Highlight key products as the primary focal point

Reflect the seasonal or thematic concept of the catalog

Maintain brand recognition and visual consistency

Concept & Art Direction

Each catalog edition was built around a narrative environment designed to support the featured product.

Half Bottle Selection
A lifestyle-inspired composition highlighting 375ml wines alongside food pairings, emphasizing versatility and everyday enjoyment.

Italy Edition
This catalog cover design was created as part of a Halloween Marketing Campaign series, blending Italian wine heritage with seasonal visual storytelling to create a bold and engaging promotional cover.

Holiday Half Bottle Edition
A festive winter setting designed to evoke celebration and gifting moments, reinforcing the appeal of smaller bottle formats for gatherings.

Craft Spirits Edition
A warm, refined studio composition using textured surfaces and moody lighting to emphasize the craftsmanship and premium character of the spirits.

Design Approach

The visual scenes were created using a mix of product photography, styled props, and digital compositing to build immersive environments around the featured bottles.

Key design considerations included:

Establishing a strong typographic hierarchy to ensure the theme is instantly recognizable.

Designing balanced compositions that keep the product as the focal point.

Using lighting and color palettes to reinforce the seasonal atmosphere.

Maintaining consistent branding elements across editions for continuity.

Outcome

The resulting catalog covers create a cohesive yet diverse series, where each edition presents a unique visual narrative while reinforcing the brand identity of Monsieur Touton Selection.

The designs function as both marketing assets and editorial entry points, helping capture attention, highlight featured wines and spirits, and support the company’s seasonal promotional campaigns.

Marketing Campaign Designs

Halloween Marketing Campaign Designs for Podere Castorani Wine

Overview

An integrated seasonal marketing campaign designed to promote Podere Castorani Orange Wine during the Halloween season. The campaign combines theatrical visual storytelling with product-focused design to create a memorable promotional experience across print and digital platforms, including brochures, posters, catalog covers, and social media content. The goal was to transform a traditional product promotion into an immersive campaign that captures the playful suspense and atmosphere of Halloween while maintaining the premium identity of the wine.

Challenge

Seasonal wine marketing often relies on predictable holiday visuals. The challenge was to create a Halloween campaign that felt original, memorable, and playful, while still presenting the wine as a premium product.

The campaign also needed to function consistently across multiple marketing channels, from printed collateral to social media formats.

Concept & Art Direction

The campaign concept, “Uncork the Fear,” places the wine bottle at the center of a Halloween story.

Instead of the bottle simply appearing in advertisements, it becomes the main character of a spooky narrative where mysterious figures are drawn toward it.

Across posters, catalog covers, and social media assets, haunting figures emerge from the darkness reaching for the bottle, symbolizing customers irresistibly attracted to the wine.

In some visuals the figures attempt to capture it, while in others the ghostly character presents the bottle as if proudly showcasing it during the Halloween celebration.

This playful tension between fear and desire creates a memorable visual narrative that reinforces the campaign theme.

Design System

A consistent visual language was developed to support the campaign across all platforms.

Key visual elements include:

Atmospheric fog and dark textured environments
Warm orange highlights that echo the wine label
Dramatic lighting to create a cinematic Halloween mood
Ghostly hands, skeleton figures, and carved pumpkins
The wine bottle is positioned as the visual focal point

These elements allow the wine to remain the hero while surrounding characters create movement and narrative tension.

Execution

The campaign was executed across print and digital platforms including a coffin-style tri-fold brochure, poster series, catalog covers, and Instagram carousel and story posts. Each asset maintains the bottle as the hero element while haunting figures interact with it, reinforcing the campaign narrative across all formats.

Brochure Design

The campaign’s central piece is a 3-panel gatefold brochure designed as a coffin.

When closed, the brochure visually resembles a coffin with the message “Open if you dare.”

When opened, the inside reveals the wine bottle placed inside the coffin instead of a human figure, turning the product reveal into a theatrical moment.

Poster Design

A set of Halloween promotional posters where ghostly figures reach toward the bottle or interact with it in dramatic scenes. In one variation, a skeletal character presents the wine directly to the viewer, reinforcing the idea of the wine being showcased during the Halloween celebration.

Catalog Covers

Seasonal catalog covers designed to extend the campaign into the company’s trade publications, ensuring visual consistency across marketing materials.

Social Media Camaign

Instagram carousel posts and Story ads adapted the campaign for mobile viewing, using the same cinematic atmosphere and narrative elements to capture attention in digital spaces.

Outcome

The campaign created a cohesive Halloween marketing identity across multiple channels, transforming a seasonal promotion into a narrative-driven visual experience.

By positioning the wine as the central character and the haunting figures as symbolic customers drawn toward it, the campaign balances playful horror aesthetics with product-focused marketing, resulting in a distinctive and memorable seasonal campaign.
