Design Details

Unique Properties
Set against one of the most stunning natural landscapes, Phoenix, Arizona, is home to awe-inspiring sunsets, canyons, and vistas. The desert city’s sweeping scenery has inspired artists throughout history, and in 2023 we joined their ranks when we designed a limited edition Pepsi bottle celebrating the host of the year’s ultimate football event.
Inspiration
Our team drew inspiration from the local landscape known for its vast sky and unique flora and fauna. We pushed the limits of printing capabilities to create depth with a vibrant black-to-purple-to-orange gradient, capturing the awe of an Arizona sunrise. Discoverable silhouetted icons pepper the desert landscape filled with cacti and bushes, paying homage to the wildlife of Arizona, including coyotes, snakes, birds and more.
