Advertising agency Mark My Words reached out to Stephen to help execute a brand refresh for their client CitroLife. Under the banner of CitroShield they had a range of cleaning products with dated packaging labels that lacked brand cohesion. Working to the initial brief Stephen developed a strong visual hierarchy for the labels, providing well defined areas for the brand lockup, product attributes and hero imagery. The outcome was a unified product range that would help build brand recognition and provide a competitive edge in a crowded FMCG category.
