Hungerford Hill is a wine company based in Australia that was in desperate need of a [rebranding strategy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edinburgh-gin-redesign). To achieve this, they hired amplified industries to help, and went with a [fish-inspired look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/always-a-smooth-catch).

Fishcage is the name of the specific brand they were looking to update, so it makes sense to place the animal on the front. The illustration is placed on a white background, with more cursive writing for the name above. Overall it is quite [minimalist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krink-x-barossa-ink-limited-edition-shiraz) with nothing too extravagant, but this approach works well for the company. This way consumers are faced mostly with the name of the brand and the fish caught up by a wire below, which is enough to grab their attention.
