🚀 We’re proud to announce our latest launch with McCain Foods, refreshing their entire packaging across GB and EU markets, aligning their full portfolio with a new, cohesive brand look. From Home Chips to Croquettes, Smiles to Crispy French Fries, the updated packs feature a bespoke typeface and hand-printed brand assets, all designed to strengthen McCain’s consistency and memorability. Following the global redesign for the brand back in 2013, this new visual identity features a simplified, bolder logo, setting McCain up for continued growth in a changing market landscape. We crafted a connected brand experience that’s as memorable on the shelf as it is in campaigns. https://lnkd.in/eZbgAwsj #PackingDesign #McCainFoods #DesignInnovation #BrandOpus #VisualIdentity

Last month of Head of Strategy, Leo Hadden, headed down to London Packaging Week to join a panel discussing the impact of design on consumer behaviour. If you were able to see it in real life, lucky you if not don't panic! We have highlighted some of the key takeaways from the session below. Have a look and get in touch if you have any questions for Leo or want to learn more. #events #packagingweek #highlights #takeaways #design #consumerbehaviour
Three take-aways from a recent panel I was invited to take part in, measuring the impact of design on consumer behaviour. With lots of questions about neuro-marketing and research best-practices, here are my highlights: 1. How to bridge the say/do gap? 🫡 2. When to be wary of AI paradigms? 🧠 3. What’s the future of neuro-marketing? 👣 Comment/like/share to continue the conversation… THOM NOBLE Iain Amos Tim Sykes #LondonPackagingWeek #brandmagnetism #branding #brandidentity #neuromarketing #marketing #research

In celebration of #JellO and it’s wonder-filled goodness, we got our jiggle-on again with the Kraft Heinz Jell-O team to create the inflatable Jell-O chair. The design is an ode to Jell-O’s heritage and Y2K nostalgia, inspired both by Jell-O’s iconic molds and its playful jiggly personality. We wanted to create something fun and unexpected for families, introducing The Jelly collection by Jell-O! https://lnkd.in/gwP32jNP #jello #branding #brandextension #brandworld #brandopus

Some thoughts from our CCO, Paul Taylor, on the recent PayPal rebrand.... #rebrand #paypal #brandopus #design #branddesign
The recent rebrand of PayPal presents a mixed bag of positives and missed opportunities. On one hand, the enhanced ‘PP’ monogram is a positive step forward. The amplification of the Venn-like overlay within the monogram builds on the brand’s existing equity by visually reinforcing the connection between "Pay" and "Pal." This blending effect gives the logo a more meaningful and dynamic symbol, emphasizing the partnership embedded in PayPal’s core value proposition. The introduction of more vibrant shades of blue further energizes the symbol, lending it a fresh sense of feeling active and precise. However, the strength of the updated monogram is undermined by the broader changes in the brand's identity system. While the ‘PP’ symbol now imbues a stronger sense of connectivity, its role across the brand identity feels secondary, almost as if it's role has been relegated to a practical shorthand rather than the primary distinctive asset. In stark contrast, the wider identity system feels disconnected. The new logotype, with its generic typography and prioritization of black over blue, strips the brand of its visual distinctiveness. The decision to split the brand name into two separate words further dilutes its impact. PayPal, when treated as a single entity, holds more power and cohesion. In contrast, the separated "Pay" and "Pal" make the brand feel more like a generic descriptor, applicable to any digital payment system. Coupled with the shift in colour palette and the lack of secondary distinctive assets, the rebrand seems to lose much of the brand’s memory structure and established recognition. Not enough attention has been paid to considering what should have been retained to move the identity forward, not to mention a lack of secondary distinctive assets to ensure it can remain connected across the identity eco system. Ultimately, it is imperative for brands to create a meaningful & connected brand identity that can be consistently leveraged across all touchpoints. A unified and cohesive identity ensures that every aspect of the brand reinforces its core values and visual distinctiveness, preventing fragmentation and enhancing long-term recognition. https://lnkd.in/eFjyiZwD
