Hotel CUBO, in-house wine
The hotels have developed a unique communications system that strives for universal understanding. That is why we decided that in-house wine of Hotel CUBO should communicate with guests in the same recognizable and straightforward language.
The label in the shape of a door hanger was printed in single color, and data about the wine, such as grape variety, vintage, wine region, etc., are marked on the label with crossed out boxes. The simple solution is relaxing and welcomes the guest in a memorable way.
