Glenmorangie 18: A new Wallpaper* and malt whisky collaboration

Glenmorangie’s 18 Years Old is a premium single-malt Scotch whisky of serious distinction. Wallpaper* worked with the venerable Highlands-based brand on last year’s 'Modern Gentleman' by Glenmorangie and Wallpaper* project, an ambitious collaborative effort that saw us commissioning a collection of one-off whisky-inspired furniture, lighting and accessories from a handpicked selection of designers and craftspeople.

For this year’s challenge, we’ve teamed up with Glenmorangie again and selected six more designers from Wallpaper’s extended global talent network.

We’ve provided each one with a simple brief: use your craft, creativity and technique to create bar-room glory with a multiple-bottle display – what’s known in the drinks trade as a ‘bottle glorifier’.

Our six designers’ role is to enhance the visibility and desirability of both the Glenmorangie 18 Years Old and Signet ranges of whisky, either on or behind the bar, or on a table. The glorifier must work for both ranges (both bottles having the same footprint and diameter).

For the first stage of the project we’ve asked each designer to submit three initial glorifier designs in the form of sketches. Then it’s up to you.   

From these three preliminary sketches Glenmorangie is asking Wallpaper.com readers and Glenmorangie Facebook friends to decide which one of the concepts, by each designer, will go into production for a special Wallpaper* feature early next year.
