Mattson Creative



Mattson Creative is a design studio who specialise in brand and identity development. Their studio is based in Orange County, USA and they have worked for clients such as Coca Cola, Apple, Maroon 5 and Pepsi.

I first came across their work when i began research into can design and saw their recent redesign of the Vanilla Coca-Cola can. They always manage to put their stamp on it or work their style into it somehow. I admire designers with a strong personal style that doesn’t deter big name clients from working with them. For instance they took the Vanilla Coke can and made it their own and it really is quite different from anything Coca-Cola have done before on their cans. 


From looking at their online portfolio i realised they were behind the designs for some alternate DVD box sets and poster for the American TV series Dexter. I happen to be a huge fan of the series and so instantly enjoyed the illustrative style they had applied to the box sets. They really brought Dexter to life and they looked a lot cooler than the existing box sets. 

They produce work that I would love to have in my portfolio and if I ever move to America I will definitely be asking them for a placement!
