In a supplement branding effort to differentiate 'Strong' supplements, designers at [Pearlfisher](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/andrex) created a series of symbolic avians to adorn the bottles. Each supplement bottle is branded with a different flying animal illustration that represents the product's contents. Combined with a minimalist bottle design, the illustrations make for some beautiful packaging.

Each bird illustration was designed to give the user a convenient representation of the supplement's benefits. The 'brain box' is adorned with a drawing of an owl to represent wisdom while the 'chill pill' supplement has a relaxed pigeon. The 'sunshine pill' is illustrated with a bright yellow canary.

Pearlfisher's amazing designs come from experience designing packaging for conglomerates such as [Starbucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mofusand-starbucks) and [Cadbury](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-yours-for-200-years). With minimalist illustrations to augment an already simple value proposition, Strong's supplements are sure to carve a strong position in the nutrition market.
