Case Study
Branding & Packaging
This new line of Protein & Superfruit nutritious bar products from thinkThin debuted in the market creating a buzz in the protein bar category. It is innovative in that it contains fruit & vegetable ingredients enhancing the functional benefits of the brand.
Protein & Superfruit provides a combination of fruit and vegetable ingredients in a baked protein bar. It is a nutritious offering with the opportunity to visually position the benefits on the primary display panel. Also, the product is a premium offering which required the approach to incorporate visual design cues, coupled with printing techniques to “plus-up” the experience. Finally, the brand is known for its delicious and indulgent imagery through beautiful photography, shot in natural lighting. The photography tone helps convey strong appetite-appeal, which was our intent.
Logo Development
A unique logo was necessary to drive differentiation from the existing line. The font was chosen for its whimsical and casual nature. Exploring color was another strategy to help bring it to life. We recommended a vibrant, bold color palette, assigning each flavor & logo with a color.
“Good design is obvious. Great design is transparent.”
