Rebranding and pack-aging design concept for cat food brand
US & Europe markets
Date
January 2019
Whiskas is a well-known mass-market manufacturer of cat food.
This is a strong brand with 80 years history.
The task was to attract an audience with an above average income, avid cat owners, who want something special for their pets. It was also necessary to refresh the design, make it more clean and modern, work out the positioning and communication for Europe and US markets.

LOGO
We've analyzed the current communication and design of the Whiskas brand, the market and competitors. As a result, we preserved the corporate color and slightly refreshed the logo, making it more modern.

IDEA
The main idea is a taste journey. The new line of Whiskas nutrition is a gastro tour for cats. It's about discovery and curiosity. The idea finds its extension in the new slogan — "Cat's pass to taste destinations". The visual language was inspired by the visa stamps.
FONT
The letterforms of the monospaced typeface have a visual reference to typewriters aesthetics and flight tickets, which complements the main idea.
COLOR
We kept the recognizable brand color as the main for packaging.

PACKAGING
New Whiskas nutrition line is called Taste Journey. The idea of gastro tour for cats finds it extension in packaging design. Small geometric shapes are simplified of cat food pieces.
COMMUNICATION
The important part of this project is communication. We've created two campaigns in different visual directions within one identity style.
One campaign is for promotion of the new packaging line. Another tells small stories on behalf of cats and builds a semantic bridge between the idea of gastro tour and diversity of cats and tastes.
