346 - Sistine Spritz packaging aesthetic is unreal! w/ founder Kate McLamb and Lauren Alexander
In this episode of the People of Packaging podcast, Adam Peek sits down with Kate McLamb and Lauren Alexander, the visionary co-founders of Sistine Spritz. They dive deep into how they built a brand that’s about much more than just a drink—it’s about “romantic rebellion,” community, and intentional design. The Vision Behind the Spritz 🎨 Kate and Lauren didn’t just set out to make another beverage; they wanted to create an entire world. Drawing from Lauren’s 20-year bac kground in apparel design and Kate’s experience in video production and business development, they approached the brand like a fashion house. Before the liquid was even finalized, they were building mood boards, crafting Spotify playlists, and defining the “Sistine” aesthetic. Key Highlights from the Episode: * Intentional Packaging: The duo explains why they chose a 750ml champagne bottle with a hand-applied blue wax seal to stand out in a crowded retail landscape. * The “Sexy” Can Challenge: Transitioning from an elegant glass bottle to a 222ml slim can wasn’t easy. They discuss the technical hurdles of maintaining their brand’s “sexy” vibe while adhering to canning standards. * Natural Vibrancy: The striking ruby-red color of the drink isn’t artificial—it’s derived entirely from beets and carrots to match their computer-generated “ideal” hue. * Building Community: From hosting intimate dinner parties in LA to creating curated playlists for “spritz-worthy” moments, Sistine is built on the power of being present with others.
