Our designers, studio Studio Tumpić/ Prenc has won a prestigious international Red Dot: Best of the Best design award for our olive oil bottle design.

Studio Tumpić/ Prenc, designers from Rovinj, took out the award in the ”packaging design” category at the Red Dot: Best of the Best awards, known as the design Oscars, for its design of a bottle of Istrian olive oil brand Latini. 

They wanted to evoke Istria’s dynamic past and the difficulties of the interior of the peninsula, where people often went to work with Italian landowners closer to the coast.

At the end of the 19th century, Tone, the ancestor of the owner of the Latini brand of premium olive oil, occasionally worked as a farmer with the Istrian Italians, who were then called Latini.

Once he received a plaid shirt as a daily allowance, then a rarity, so the locals called him ‘Latini’. That remained as the family nickname until today and was chosen as the name of the brand. It is because of this story that they dressed a bottle of olive oil in a checkered pattern with a pocket containing a piece of paper with the centuries-old family story. In a way, the design made the bottle a portrait of his beloved ancestor.
