A founding mother anchors a seafood identity
Wedge evolved Diana’s Seafood for a consumer range rooted in the company’s founding-mother story. The identity translates the warmth and standards of the established seafood business into packaging for home cooking. A bold blue wordmark draws on names painted on harbour boats, giving the brand a prominent anchor across products. Secondary typography uses Milano by Alex Lescieux, a variable family with five widths. Its changing proportions reference hand-painted lettering fitted onto fishermen’s crates. Mixing those widths introduces variation while maintaining a connection to working waterfront culture. The project combines strategy, voice, packaging architecture, illustration and digital design within the new consumer-facing identity.

Montreal-based studio Wedge launched ‘Collaboration 001,’ a self-initiated partnership with artisanal cidrerie Entre Pierre et Terre to create a duo of natural cidres. The project features hand-drawn, Marimekko-inspired illustrations and tactile packaging that reflect the organic, small-batch nature of the product. The limited-edition release sold out quickly, marking the start of future collaborative editions by the studio.
Montreal studio Wedge redesigned the packaging for Entre Pierre & Terre's exclusive range of artisan ciders from Picardie, France. Inspired by traditional French brasserie signage, the new labels combine handwritten, serif and sans serif type with a warm two-colour palette to convey product information while retaining a premium, handcrafted character. The redesigned range reportedly sold four times faster.
