Project Brief: Hot Tomato PR Box
This project celebrates Hot Tomato’s 20th birthday with a limited-edition merch unboxing experience designed for my boss, who would be opening it. The bundle includes a custom t-shirt with “20” on the front and a screen-printed portrait on the back—based on a painting of him that hangs in the restaurant. A pint glass features a grid of vinyl stickers highlighting Hot Tomato, the community, and our beer collab with Ramblebine. A shot glass reads “eating pizza, drinking beer, and riding bikes for 20 years,” putting a twist on our motto. The goal was to create a personal, fun, and meaningful package for my boss that captures the community Hot Tomato has built.

My boss unboxing his Hot Tomato 20th Birthday limited edition merchandise box! I'm glad that I was able to turn this project into something that made him feel appreciated for all that he does. He really makes the restaurant what it is!
