A Contemporary Interpretation of a Classic

This label reimagines the classic olive oil bottle through Rama’s contemporary visual vocabulary. Rather than replicating tradition, the design abstracts it — preserving the recognizable silhouette while rebuilding it through minimal linework and a clean, architectural rhythm.Inspired by the quiet structure of Damascus, the design is both familiar and new: a distilled form of heritage translated into a modern object.

To create this bottle’s first edition, we introduced the early-harvest concept to farmer Nassar Darawshi, who immediately embraced it and began pressing three weeks earlier than usual, resulting in a vivid green Suri olive oil with a fruity aroma, herbaceous palate, and peppery finish that captures Nazareth’s landscape at its freshest moment.

The Special Label Series brought together 6 designers from across SWANA, each contributing a distinct artistic voice to our olive oil collection. The project celebrated our shared visual languages, regional interconnectedness, and the cultural echoes that move across borders and generations.

Each designer created a one-of-a-kind label, turning every bottle into a collectible piece of regional design. With every bottle sold from their edition, 10% will be donated to a community-based initiative or NGO chosen by the artist.


Every label carried a personal connection — a thread as meaningful as the artwork itself.

The series became a meeting point between art and agriculture, honoring the craft behind the oil and the creativity behind the design.
