Farner Branding receives double award at iF Design Award 2021
The jury of the iF Design Award honored two projects by Farner Branding. Awards were presented for both the series of artist posters for the «Al Mulinetto» winery and the design of the book «Sechseläuten 2019.» In 2021, nearly 10,000 entries from 60 countries were submitted to the design competition.
Regarding the poster series for the small Ticino winery "Al Mulinetto", the jury of the iF Design Award writes: "The products of Al Mulinetto are a rarity on the Swiss market, as the number of bottles is very limited. The dramatization of the ultra-limited edition was realized with creatures from mythology, the Merlot for example is as rare as the opportunity to meet a dragon. The products themselves are thus made into a myth."
Regarding the award for the design of the book "Sechseläuten 2019" with images by Swiss photographer Alberto Venzago, the jury notes, "This year [2019], the Vereinigte Zünfte zur Gerwe und Schuhmachern, one of the participating guilds, commissioned the well-known Swiss photojournalist Alberto Venzago to tell its visual story of the event. While the 2020 event could not take place due to Covid-19, the book was still published at the time of Sechseläuten 2020."
