NEWWORDS

NEWWORDS is the independent film project of Joe Kolean and Chad Vickery. It was released in September 2010 during ArtPrize in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The project consists of 26 short films, one for every letter (example: C for Cellegratonia), each titled a new word created by Kolean and Vickery.

Despite having virtually no budget, after 3 intensive years of production the filmmakers insisted on self-releasing, distributing, and promoting the project. Having wrestled with the costs and benefits of making physical copies of the films, they decided to do an extremely limited DVD release in addition to online distribution.

Kolean and Vickery focused on designing and constructing unique, high-quality packaging and supplemental material. Designed by Trevor Edmonds and constructed by Meghann Rader, the DVD case is made of maple veneer, hand cut, assembled, and stamped. The sleek case includes a simplistic solution for holding the DVD itself, as well as a 24-page booklet.

Eco Joe

EcoJoe respects the Catholic tradition and promotes learning of Saint Joseph.

There is a popular tradition/custom/superstition to bury Saint Joseph statues as a good luck charms in selling real estate. However, all the products on the market were made with plastic, which can release toxins into our eco-system after being left buried for a long time. So we made an eco-friendly version that will not harm the earth, aptly named EcoJoe.

Our goal at EcoJoe is to provide a greener alternative to existing plastic St. Joseph products on the real estate market. St Joseph statues are often forgotten once the properties are sold, or the sellers simply forgot where they buried him. As time goes on, plastic degrades and releases toxins that come back into our food through poisoning water sources, soil and our eco-system.

EcoJoe solves that ecological problem of plastic, at the same time, forgetting to dig Saint Joseph up leave EcoJoe in the ground to bless the next homeowners is perfectly okay.

At the same time, EcoJoe respects the Catholic tradition and promotes learning of Saint Joseph.

DB Export

Designed by DOW Design, New Zealand.

The DB Export family of beers has received a Dow Design makeover in time for the brand’s 50th Anniversary.

The DB Export range - now in store - has a fresh and contemporary new look, that also pays homage to the brand’s history. In addition, the original DB Export beer returns for a limited time to celebrate the landmark, revisiting its 1960s look and feel.

“Our aim was to rediscover the truths behind the DB Export family of beers, while also bringing the range up to date with the expectations of the modern consumer,” says Dow Design Senior Creative, Will Fletcher. “To properly engage consumers, we have layered the Export packaging with classic beer cues, injecting masculinity and authenticity.”

It was the success of Dow Design’s rebrand of Export 33 last year that inspired a new look for the rest of the DB Export family says DB Export’s Marketing Manager Dave Shoemack. “We were greatly encouraged by Export 33’s redesign as it revolutionised the brand, bringing it from No. 4 to No. 1 in the low carb beer category.”

A recent gold medal winner at Belgium’s Monde Awards, the Export Gold label has now moved away from its yellow colour palette and gone back to a classic gold livery. Export Dry has followed the lead taken by Export 33 and had its paper label replaced with a clear plastic one with silver tones. The outer packaging of the beers also have a crisp new look, including an eye catching close-up image of a bottle neck on the end panels of packs.

The redesign of packaging across the range creates brand cohesion for the family of beers. This is expected to strengthen loyalty amongst current consumers and also attract new drinkers.

To coincide with the relaunch, an ad campaign set in the 1960s tells the story of Morton Coutts, the founder of DB Export and a pioneer in New Zealand beer brewing. His legacy includes in 1968 winning the ‘Best Beer in the World’ title for DB Export Beer, the same beer that is back for a limited time.

“The brand’s rich history provided an authentic base from which to draw inspiration, allowing us to include subtle nods to the past with Morton Coutts’ signature and the DB logo appearing across the range,” says Will Fletcher. “We have also stayed true to the original DB Export in our retro and nostalgic design for the limited edition quart bottles. We chose uncoated cardboard stock as the appropriate packaging for its twin packs. This gave us the perfect canvas to tell the DB story of innovative brewing in just four colours to create an old style print press look.”

Emphasising the brand’s heritage is not a 50th Anniversary ploy but part of a long term strategy says Dave Shoemack. “DB Export’s long and impressive history is one of the great New Zealand stories. This differentiates it from other beers and the time was right to share that story. We couldn’t be happier with Dow’s rebrand; it has struck the ideal balance, embracing the past while simultaneously appealing to a modern market through a contemporary look and feel.”

Rebranded Export Gold and Export Dry are now available in bars and supermarkets nationwide. The quart-sized bottles of DB Export, complete with 60s style branding, are available in 300 bars nationwide and the twin packs - with a limited edition bottle opener – are available in supermarkets and specialist stores.

Dow Design’s DB Export offering follows recent successes in rebranding long established local brands such as Anchor, Primo, Fresh ‘n Fruity, Brancott Estate (Montana) wines, Robert Harris and Arano juice. The brand design specialists are also behind the recent redesign of the Alison’s Pantry section of New World and Pak ‘n Save stores nationwide, and are consultants to Auckland’s new Q Theatre.

Scandinavian Gingerbread Cookies

Designed by Packlab Partners, Finland.

Kanniston Leipomo Bakery asked the help of Packlab Partners to redefine Scandinavian premium gingerbread for Christmas. The brief was to design packaging for simply the best Gingerbread cookies in Finland.

Packlab Partners created a unique experience that exploited joined-up-thinking with integral product and packaging development. Packlab Partners looked into the stakeholders behaviour within the bakery, distribution chain, retail environments and explored Scandinavian seasonal home experiences. These observations lead to a marriage of old Scandinavian tradition of three pieces of gingerbread bringing good luck and heart-shaped pieces emphasising the affectionate characteristics of the season which were widely introduced both in the product. This was also communicated graphically through 5 different, yet similar variants of packaging.

The packaging design enlightens the handmade image of the product as well as raising it to a premium category with minimal use of material. The structural packaging design enabled easy packing at the bakery, protection for the product and a unique functional opening system for the end users

Designed by Linea Web Graffiti 2000 S.p.A., Italy.

The matching set “Dolci emozioni” (sweet emotions, t.n.) offers an entire catalogue of cakes and biscuits in a minimal stylish packaging, whose essential approach is enriched by the yielding shape of the fonts.

The graphic layout is emphasized through the use of a laminated paper, easy on the hands, making the optic white of the boxes even brighter.

The brilliance of the surface is crossed by the dark transverse words: fonts are embellished by the glossy finish of a special synthetic paint, which provides the colour with a chocolate-like texture.

Seattle’s Best Coffee

Designed by Creature, United States.

Seattle’s Best Coffee, part of Starbucks Corporation, today announced a radically simplified packaged coffee line designed to change the conventions of the coffee category. The Seattle’s Best Coffee “Level” System delivers great tasting, premium coffee with an expanded blend offering in conjunction with an innovative and bold new packaging concept. The Level System’s unique array of numbers and vivid colors tell consumers exactly what they want to know: which type of coffee fits their taste profile. Seattle’s Best Coffee is the first brand in the coffee category to offer this unique approach, which will begin hitting grocery and retail store shelves in December 2010.

With the new Level System, consumers will be able to easily find and choose from a selection of Seattle’s Best Coffee blends that span the entire range of coffee enjoyment, from a mild, light, crisp Level 1 to a bold, dark and intense Level 5. Each Level represents a finely tuned recipe crafted from decades of roasting experience, blended from beans carefully chosen for their nuances and characteristics, and carrying the hallmark taste of Seattle’s Best Coffee: velvety, round and smooth.

In addition to Levels 1 through 5, consumers can choose from a decaffeinated blend, an Organic Fair Trade CertifiedTM blend and flavored coffees Cinnamon (“C”) and Hazelnut (“H”). The new Level System lineup is currently replacing the existing Seattle’s Best Coffee products on shelves.

‘Ultimately, people select coffee based on taste and that can be hard to determine in today’s coffee aisle,’ said Andrew Linnemann, director, Green Coffee Quality, Starbucks Corporation. ‘Seattle’s Best Coffee is known for its smooth taste profile. Each Level has been sourced, blended and roasted with care and precision to meet consumers’ desire to simply enjoy a great tasting cup of coffee.’

Restylane

Designed by BVD, Sweden.

During 2010 BVD updated the graphic identity for Restylane, products used for esthetic beauty treat ments from the Uppsala based company Q-Med. Since Restylane has been on the market for more than 13 years, it was time to update the image for the brand. The new design will be launched in January 2011 for implementation throughout the year. With the new design Restylane strengthens the brand as the market leader, positions it as a premium brand as well as presents a more sympathetic image that consumers can identify with.

The shift from customer focus to consumer focus, is important for the updated graphic profile. The brand needed to appeal to the end consumers rather than just targeting doctors that carry out the treatments. The medical image with the brand shouldn't be given up, but more warmth and acces sibility was needed. Furthermore, it was important to create a unique and distinctive graphic identity that clearly differentiates Restylane from its competitors on a rather homogenous market. With Swedish innovation as a starting point, the design philosophy is based on beauty, individuality and reliability. The target group aspires to these values along with simplicity, naturalness and a confident modern awarness. The graphic identity is based on a combination of integrated design elements, typography, symbol of the circle, photography as well as a system of color coding. The design is applied to all channels of the brand from the packaging of all the products to all sales material externally and internally.

Queen Mary Tea

Designed by Niedermeier Design, United States.

Queen Mary Tea began as an upscale boutique cafe where patrons could enjoy full leaf teas from around the world while being immersed in a Victorian-style ambiance. Now they were looking to expand their customer base by selling premium tea products in high-end spas, hotels, and restaurants. As the name suggests, celebrating England’s rich tradition of midday tea is what first inspired the creation of this gourmet brand.

Carrying this original vision through to their packaging would be essential to achieving consistent brand representation. New flavor-based iconography and a distinct color palette were used to distinguish the various tea groups and helped clarify customer choice. A revised logo designed specifically for use with embossing and foil-stamping would allow for that extra special touch on thank you cards, invitations and other brand correspondence.

Personalize

Designed by Pande Design Solutions, Brazil.

Rupture for the packaging of automotive accessories

Pande Design Solutions, a brazilian agency of design, signs the new packaging line of automotive accessories from General Motors (GM), launched at the Brazilian’s Auto Show 2010. The case brings to the segment an emotive language that connects with consumers.

To breathe life into the concept was created the brand Personalize, which offers an experience beyond the product, enhancing the consumer's personality and his emotional attachment to the car. The value of personalization revolves around the desire of everyone wanting to be unique, special and different, with a car "your way". Accessories assert the idea of status, power, and community inclusion.

The packages talk to the target, enticing the consumer and thereby contributing to the proposed acquisition, which is often made on impulse in this segment. In addition to bringing clear information, the design highlights the main attributes of each product in a simple language that makes the technical background.

Aiming to facilitate the identification and add value to the products was created a unique color code. The packaging of premium products have won sober colors and metallic. For the most popular accessories, the colors are vibrant, facilitating the choice of radios, navigators, DVDs and speakers.

Johnnie Walker Gold

Designed by QSLD Paris, France.

Johnnie Walker has decided to create a new way to savour its Gold Label Whisky : Serve Chilled.

The french design agency QSLD Paris has been selected to create the outer pack dedicated to this new tasting.

Freeze your bottle and put it into Johnnie Walker Ice Pillar. It will keep your bottle cold and will allow you to extend your chilled relishing.

Cuevas Chef

Designed by Garrofé Brand&Pack, Spain.

Grupo Cuevas entrusts to Garrofé Brand&Pack the repositioning of their mass commodity products

Garrofé Brand&Pack has carried out the project of design and communication to replace the range of products directed to the Grupo Cuevas’ big audience, one of the bigger Spanish companies of the food sector. It is about a line of mash and other derivatives of chestnuts that can be used for flavoring and accompanying different plates.

In response to the will of the client to update and re-direct their mass commodity products to a young and up-to-date public, Garrofé Brand&Pack has re-designed the packaging of the whole range of products according to their new positioning at the market. The new packaging, with sharp and clear lines, and with a young and dynamic style, answers to the aim for transmitting the values of a line of products destined to improve and enrich the consumers’ every day cooking with a professional but, at the same time, home-made touch.

In addition, Garrofé Brand&Pack has created the specific subbrand Cuevas Chef and the descriptive concept to be used as a claim Your touch. Both concepts describe the product and transmit perfectly its values of positioning in the market: to wise up the every day cooking, to create sensations, to have a tasty but healthy diet, to add an original touch to the plates that are cooked in house. The claim Your touch, easy to deal, is directed all the ages and transmits a clear message: "Make something different. With the Cuevas’ products you will give to your plates the touch of an expert cooker".

As a result of the redesign of packaging and of the development of the descriptive concepts, the campaign Cuevas Chef transmits coherence, attraction and efficiency, accomplishing the requirements of the initial briefing.

Pembroke Craft Brewery

Designed by Gary Head Design, Australia.

What started as a love for beer and the need for more packaging pieces in a growing portfolio, this project developed into creating a brand for two guys who brew more beer than they can drink and Pembroke Craft Brewery was born and the simple task for this job was to develop a labeling system for their ever expanding brew collection while sticking to their slick brand which highlights their outstanding work ethic to produce premium beer and beverages.

The labeling system is based on a focus toward a numerical labeling rather than traditional simple beer names. Resulting in the name of the beverage varieties being able to be more descriptive than the traditional naming of beers such as Dry or Drought. All varieties have a template style design with the only point of difference being replaceable copy and colour to reflect the style of each beer/beverage.

Gahaña (Student Work)

Designed by Christopher Vicente, currently studying graphic design at the Art Institute of California: Orange County.

Gahaña is a line of Indian spice mixtures (masala) created for a branding and packaging project. This lines of spices consist of three mixed flavors: mango/ginger, pomegranate/almond and garlic/onion. In this project I tried to focus on designing something that’s normally very traditional looking and giving it a more contemporary feel. Flavor identification was also very important when it came to the branding of this product. The colors as well as the flavor symbols were the two main things that I used to set the three flavors apart while making sure that there’s continuity within the line of products.

New Twist on an Old Classic

Sweet’s Candy needed a rejuvenation for their century-old product and a face lift for their decades-old packaging.
