Barbara Solomon Paints
Branding, Packaging Design, & Illustration
Barbara Solomon Paints is a stylish, modern wall paint brand for every DIY-er. One way that customers use the paint is to create loud, colourful shapes and accents. With that in mind, and with the reemergence of Mid-Century Modern (MCM) furniture, the natural imagery to inspire the Barbara Solomon Paints brand is 1950’s era branding and illustration. The large colourful flat shapes and the MCM look come
together in a fun vintage package.
The illustrations use the motif of a woman magically painting a wall, illustrating just how easy it is to use Barbara Solomon Paints. This shows customers the ease of use and
gives a nod to the marketing of the 1950s that often remarked on how magical new technology was.
