This Way Up: Peanut Hottie packaging

Brand: Peanut HottieAgency: This Way Up, London, UKAgency website: http://www.thiswayupdesig.comCreative Director: David Pearman Art Director: Hayley BishopShort rationale (optional): Peanut Hottie is an instant powdered hot drink sold in a 225g jar and a single serve sachet. The product contains real peanuts and the perfect measure of creamer. Consumers simply add boiling water, stir and then cosy up on the sofa. The flavour of Peanut Hottie is rich, creamy peanut butter, which makes it unlike any other hot beverage in the market.The main design challenge was to communicate the peanut butter flavour and visually deliver an appetising, indulgent ‘you’ve got to try this’ taste profile. The second challenge was to define a clear positioning for the brand through packaging design, that engaged consumers and articulated the slightly obsessive passion and love that some consumers have for the taste of peanuts.The team at This Way Up created a pack with a ‘love letter’ themed tone of voice, that expressed the seductive, indulgent quality of the product and the craving that consumers had towards the taste of peanuts.The design had to appeal to a broad spectrum of consumers, including those that already shop the indulgent hot beverage category and those primarily drinking tea and coffee. This Way Up based creative development on the core brand idea ‘for the love of peanuts’ and captured the flavour and delicious taste profile of the product using a warm golden-brown brand colour and scripted typography. The copy on pack is playful and irreverent, and reads ‘take me home, love your…Peanut Hottie’, to create a seductive connection between consumers and the brand.

We see him going about his daily business (at the barber, in bed at night, brushing his teeth in the morning, at the butchers etc), and he never wants to take it off. He can’t believe his luck when he comes downstairs one morning to find his parents in similar monster outfits, ready for a fun day at Twickenham.

The yellow circle in its simplicity works to highlight, frame and compliment the minimalistic black & white typography. While the interior of the hotel mixes ancient pieces with modern Israeli and international design, the identity remains austere using black white and yellow, printed on fine quality white board.

Passport: Pure Design Consultancy branding

Build by Refresh Interactive.Published: March 2014Short rationale (optional): Pure Design Consultancy is a small and friendly independent interior design studio, offering a full range of services from conceptual thinking through to project management for the retail, leisure, office and exhibition industries. The aim was to develop a cohesive identity that indicates the industry experience of the consultancy and reflects the high standard of work they deliver through unique customer experiences. The identity foccuses on the concept of pure elements and minerals, manifesting itself through a signature 'Alabaster' paper stock, copper detailing, and pure black and white. By using carefully selected combinations of these colours and materials alongside a restrained typographic approach, it helped to build and reinforce a feeling of purity. We took further influence from the periodic table of elements to use just the initials of the consultancy and paired this with a simple circle to maintain a clean and contemporary aesthetic. These design principles were transferred into two opposing customer profile books which feature a high level of hand-crafted finishing including; mutliple stocks, digital and screen printing, foil-blocking, triplexed board covers, central throw-outs and customised binding screws. The identity was also applied across various personal stationery items and a multi-page website.

The second ad follows glamorous radio presenter Jill and her guide dog Lucas. The ad shows Jill at work and out with friends. She says that when she became blind at the age of 19, she felt trapped and her future plans disappeared over night. She explains that having a guide dog “set her free” and that he hasn’t “changed her life, he’s given her a life”. Both ads feature the staggering fact that every hour someone in the UK goes blind.
