Takumi Brewery

Brand proposal for Takumi Brewery, a new brewing company based in Hakodate city, located in northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. In Japanese, the term Takumi means “craftmanship”, which is the starting point for this micro-brewery pretending to create a new scenario mixing the traditional brewing process with innovative techniques and flavors to offer to the costumer an original range of beers. Takumi Brewery is developing three different types of beers named as three iconic and traditional Japanese swords: Katana (India Pale Ale Beer), Tantō (Wheat Beer) and Ōdachi (Marzen Beer). The logotype was made customizing Harbour typeface by Gareth Hague, which is used in the rest of the branding. The typographic design of each label was made with Druk typeface by Commercial Type.
