When Banfi contacted us to create the label for the new Limited Edition of La Pettegola, it was immediately clear who the main figure of the artwork should be; the bird! We imagined it as the main character in a brightly coloured and rather psychedelic video game, like the ones we spent hours playing as children. Our “pettegola” bird moves through a stylised Tuscan landscape, among hills, flowers, bunches of grapes, bicycles and fiery sunsets, bringing light-heartedness and happiness wherever it goes. The fact that the label comes to life through augmented reality was further encouragement to create a design full of life, a veritable mini-world to “Van-Ortonise”.
