Public Image Design created a synergy between packaging concepts, national print advertising campaigns, social media and in-store promotional programs for several of our major clients including Frescobaldi, Cantina di Negrar and Santa Margherita which led to significant sales and market share increases.
Public Image Design’s early work on the Santa Margherita platinum sponsorship of the Scotiabank AIDS Walk for Life led to the winery receiving recognition from the LCBO with an Elsie Award for Social Responsibility. It’s design proposal for Cantina di Negrar Vino Novello won the winery the tender for an unprecedented 13 consecutive years at the LCBO with excellent sales performance each year. It was always fun to work with Daryl. While his unconventional ideas would sometimes surprise, his approaches would always help us rise above the “sea of sameness”, be favourably noticed and help us excel.

Daryl offers a balanced blend of skills in advertising, branding, package design, online user interface (UI) and user experience (UX). However, like all great wines, he’s more than his blended components.
Daryl has that hard-to-describe sense of terroir, or signature style, that you’ll recognize when you have the privilege to work with him, as I have for more than five years.
If you’re looking for a fresh perspective that’s rooted in years of experience, then Daryl Woods is a perfect pairing. 98 points

When you work with Daryl – as I have for many years – you will appreciate his approach to design as a process. He begins with a thorough discussion of needs, and is careful to consider the target market, what his client is trying to achieve and the different strategies to get there.
Daryl always explores many possibilities – some are surprising, all are creative and well-executed. I am always confident that the final solution is the right one because the process reveals it.
