• G&G DISTILLED
Garden & Gun’s exclusive Kentucky Bourbon Country experience
2024

G&G Distilled is a curated, weeklong experience in the heart of Kentucky’s Bourbon Country. Participants gather together to celebrate America’s native spirit with rare tastings, intimate dinners, exclusive tours, and more. I worked with the team at Garden & Gun to establish the event’s identity, apply the visual system to collateral, and support multi-channel marketing through design of promotional materials.

( Many thanks to all who participated this year! )
ROLE — Identity System, Editorial, Web, Print + Digital Collateral
CREATIVE DIRECTION — Caroline O’Neill
COLLATERAL + EVENT DESIGN — G&G Marketing / Events
EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY — Shining Light Photography


• G&G DISTILLED LAUNCH
The event experience was first introduced to the G&G readership through the run of a single magazine spread, with the goal of creating intrigue around the event details to follow.
• DESIGN SYSTEM
Our partners at Kentucky Tourism were looking to capture its beloved Bourbon Country with a fresh perspective. The identity pushes elegant typography and heritage-inspired illustration through bold application. A signature color pop, play with scale, and barrel shapes round out the system.
• PROMOTION
Leading up to the event, we flexed the design system to promote the experience (venues, musical guests, chefs, distilleries) across print, social, email, and web.
• GUIDE TO BOURBON COUNTRY
We produced a booklet of food & beverage, attraction, and shopping recommendations across all participating KY counties, provided to guests leading up to the events.
• COLLATERAL
The design system was applied across a wide range of collateral, on-site at every G&G Distilled event.
