Tether: Celestial Seasonings Brand and Packaging Evolution

Brand: Celestial Seasonings

Title(s): Brand and Packaging Evolution

Agency: Tether

Agency Website: www.tetherinc.com

Chief Creative Officer: Stanley Hainsworth

Creative Director: Kari Strand

Art/Design Director: Ryan Meline

Content Director/Copywriter: Dennis O’Reilly

Senior Designer: Jeff Wilkson

Designer: James Stipes

Illustrators: Michael Bast, Delro Rosco, Robin Moline

Production Manager: Kyle Fuson

Production Designer: Keith Slawson

Senior Project Manager: Renee Perry

Published: October 2015

Short Rationale: "Starting in 1969, Celestial Seasonings broadened America’s understanding of the tea category by bringing a variety of blends to the grocery store – first herbal teas, then green teas and more. Forty-five years after the company was founded, Tether was selected as the agency partner to expand Celestial’s brand story and evolve its design identity—demonstrating how the brand fulfills the promise of inviting the perfect balance to our days.

Carrying forward many of the whimsical illustrations known and loved by generations past, Tether was able to preserve the richness of Celestial’s history, while also connecting to the needs of today’s consumer. The brand has been reimagined, but the magic of old has been retained. The result? A product experience that is easier to navigate, a logo more memorable, tea type and flavor more easily identified."
