Whether you're a boutique winery seeking a distinctive identity or an established winery aiming to refresh your brand, we’ll bring your vision to life.
WHAT WE DO
We create strategic Top Shelf Branding & Packaging
We translate your winery's personality into an image that captures minds and hearts ~ Top Shelf Branding and Packaging.
OUR PROCESS
We begin by immersing ourselves in your brand's character ~ its style, personality, and the emotions it seeks to evoke.
At Linn Design Studio, we believe that every project tells a story.
Our approach is rooted in understanding the essence of your brand, the values that drive it, and the aspirations that fuel it. We dive deep into your narrative, meticulously crafting design solutions that not only captivate the eye but also communicate your brand’s unique identity.
We combine our findings with your ultimate goals and end up with a strategy to get your to where you want to go.
Every project, every brand, is unique. Our deep dive process results in a custom comprehensive design that resonates with your target audience, forging an emotional connection that lingers long after the last sip.

Over 20 years of design experience in the Napa Valley
With over 20 years of design experience in the Napa Valley, Amy has expanded her talents beyond packaging to a more holistic brand design approach.
“I love packaging design but know that the experience of a brand goes way beyond the label, the bottle or the box. I have a passion for design - design that is used to solve a problem. I draw inspiration from all around me - architecture, music and history”
With a network of illustrators, photographers, calligraphers and designers, I’ll assemble the right team to work on your project.
The Studio
We are a small but mighty studio that can take your brand from where it is now ….. to where you want it to be.
Our studio is a light-filled, vintage 1909 building in oldtown Napa.
We are fortunate to work in Napa where we are surrounded by good food, great wine and are within walking distance from home.
In other words …. inspiration!
Napa is 50 miles north of San Francisco - close enough to be able to day trip to museums and nightlife and yet tucked away in the middle of the Napa Valley, which seems like a world away.
