Old Parr

Branding and Redesign for Diageo

forceMAJEURE was asked to create the brand world for the redesign of Old Parr, the whisky born in Scotland that has conquered the warm heart of Latin America where it is a synonym of unpretentious status. The team first set out to create a brand vision for Old Parr that would become the visual representation of brand values, elements, and personality that could be translated into any medium space. This became the touchstone for how the brand would develop, as the team moved from packaging to communication, activation, events, and experiences.

Production Technology

For the Old Parr redesign, forceMAJEURE printed the labels on metallic substrate with white and 6 colors, 2 varnishes and one embossing plate. The boxes are printed on metallic substrate as well. The challenge here was to reproduce the bottle label on the facing and apply a sculpted emboss plate over all the box to reproduce the emblematic Old Parr crackle that the bottle is famous for.

Design Challenge

The redesign of the Old Parr packaging required special attention. Foremost, the brand needed to be “refreshed,” but still maintain its quirkiness and character. Old Parr’s crackled bottle and iconic tilt are recognized worldwide, and great care was given to retain and enhance the bottle’s tactility. We researched techniques and crackled pattern designs, and worked closely with the glassmaker to achieve the organic crackled pattern, elegant in its own right when viewed up close. It was important to honor the rich history of the brand and Thomas Parr, the man, while infusing modernity into the design. The Old English typeface and age statement link the brand’s past, but modern printing techniques enhance the label’s depth, character, and tactility. The Portrait of Thomas Parr appears on the front of the bottle with a clever design and printing technique that enables him to appear and disappear when viewing the bottle from different angles.

Operation Flow

Old Parr’s crackled bottle and iconic tilt are an important part of the brand's personality. In the bottle design, great care was given to retain and enhance the bottle’s tactility, and its feel in the hand when pouring. The bottles tilt reminds us to always see life from a different perspective and embrace all it has to offer.
