Cornerstone: advert-body-1 by Path

Cornerstone, the UK first subscription-only male grooming brand, is launching a new line of dental care products. This bold step moves the brand closer to achieving its goal to own the bathroom and be the ‘Cornerstone of your day.’ London-based strategic brand agency Path has served as Cornerstone’s creative partner and brand guardian from the beginning.

For this exciting new venture, Path was tasked with developing a brand strategy that provided rationale in positioning the new dental care line within the existing portfolio. This strategy would inform a brand design solution that balanced the efficacy-driven category cues of dental care with the simplicity of the Cornerstone brand. The scope of the project also required a bespoke cardboard structure design for toothbrush heads packaging.

The powerful use of colour supports portfolio architecture, providing intuitive direction for consumers to navigate the different ranges whilst also preserving the modern simplicity of the Cornerstone brand. The new dental care range features a deep yet soft blue that plays to the conventions of the dental care category whilst also distinguishing it from the bold red palette of the shaving range. A metallic silver seal communicates the products’ clinical credentials and further supports the efficacy of the new dental care range.

Product information is kept to the minimum, giving the brand a clean and understated aesthetic that reflects the brand’s values of quality and convenience. And finally the brand’s wordmark has retained its powerful presence at the base of the pack to unite the portfolio and elevate Cornerstone’s position as a lifestyle brand.
