The Brief
The objective of this conceptual project was to develop a comprehensive brand identity, encompassing a logo, packaging, and an overall identity system for an innovative chocolate brand. At the heart of this brand lies a unique fusion of quantity and quality, emphasizing both the abundance and excellence inherent in each product. Specifically crafted to resonate with chocolate enthusiasts, the brand caters to those who cherish a deliciously straightforward and pure chocolate experience above all else.
Distinctively modern in its approach, the brand intentionally departs from the conventional and generic notions associated with the "classic" or "premium" chocolate branding. Embracing a contemporary ethos, both visually and in its expression, the brand seeks to engage consumers in a fresh and relevant manner. By steering clear of the expected, this chocolate brand aspires to captivate a broad audience with its modern and genuine appeal, inviting all chocolate lovers to indulge in a uniquely satisfying experience.
The creation of the Logo
The primary objective for this brand was the creation of an illustrative logomark that not only encapsulates the essence of the brand's name but also vividly conveys the exhilaration linked with indulging in chocolate. The intention was to craft a visual representation that visually communicates the joy and pleasure synonymous with the brand's chocolate offerings.
Additionally, a key focus was placed on ensuring the logomark and logotype could function independently, contributing to enhanced versatility in various applications within the visual identity. This strategic design approach was adopted to afford the brand the flexibility to adapt and maintain a cohesive yet adaptable presence across diverse platforms and contexts.
The color palette
The color palette for this brand finds its roots in the distinctive hues of the Belgian flag, renowned in the world of premium chocolate. However, a deliberate deviation towards softer tones was made to infuse the brand with a warmer and more approachable aura. This choice not only ensures adaptability across digital platforms and real-world applications but also serves to evoke an "if you know, you know" sentiment. The nuanced palette becomes a subtle nod, inviting those familiar with the intricacies of chocolate appreciation to share in the brand's unique narrative.
