Now a day we are used to designing packaging, without first showing how spectacular and incredible a product can be. In this development we wanted to highlight the beauty of the product through its design and functionality so that this is its greatest focal point. Without a doubt there is no better packaging design than transparency, since it allows you to show what you are really buying.

It´s unique style has a futuristic and disruptive connotation like no other brand has managed to capture. This device works with a hundred video games that allows you to immerse yourself in a unique experience with FPS video games.
Arkade Gaming Blaster stands out for its: hight precision gyroscope, motion tracking, low latency bluetooth, haptic feedback, rechargeable battery and live streaming.




The importance of an objective communication.
The importance of a brand development is to be able to expand the linear with creative ideas that follow a clear pattern of communication. The shelfs are undoubtedly one of the elements in which we can provide it with important information that allow the product to tell a story as a whole of its functional attributes.


Garza.
Restructuring the brand and packaging.
In this development we redesigned the Garza brand after 45 years of being in the national market. We felt the need to modernize the logo in conjunction with the packaging as it lacked differentiating visual elements. The challenge was to keep consumers who already knew the products, however, provide them with features that allow us to strengthen branding and incorporate new products to their line.

Livekuna.
Superfoods as a lifestyle.
The challenge of this project was to communicate how healthy and nutritious this new line of pasta is. Within which they are characterized by having as their main ingredient the different types of superfoods. However, these two product lines have a distinctive color: red (protein and fiber) and green (multigrain).





A healthy nutrition.
These products carry a high amount of nutrients based on high protein and fiber content. In addition they do not have trans fats, nor cholesterol, thus allowing to have a balanced diet low in calories without preservatives or additives.




Cris Sal.
An environmentally friendly sea salt.
Year after year, North American migratory birds travel south in search of food and rest. Ecuasal artificial pools have become that place that promotes, studies and protects the conservation of these animals.
Scientifically these unique and wonderful ponds are home to more than 135 species of birds, of which 82 are aquatic residents and 53 are migratory. It is in this natural environment where this salt is harvested and produced.




Migratory birds as a key element.
Ecuasal is the largest salt producing company in Ecuador. Within its product portfolio, a differentiating element in its salt production was rescued that allowed us to appropriate a key message; "The conservation of these birds and the preservation of this habitat that they have chosen". It is important to mention that everything revolves around this migratory bird reserve, which is why this variety of products aims to rescue some of the species that coexist in this place.



Wanabana.
Expanding the brand to new consumers.
We were in charge of developing the new line of Wanabana Baby products. Following previously the parameters established in the mother line, we expanded the brand through color treatment. In this case we use pastel colors for the newborn category. We maintained all the initial architecture to continue strengthening the presence of the brand and its style, alluding to the name, we categorized this baby line under a spectrum of color very different from the traditional line.





The 6 pillars for a sustainable brand architecture.

Brand Architecture
A product line architecture that allows us to continue introducing products to the market.
Miraflores.
New colors for the category.
Miraflores is a major brand in the dairy product category. In this development we generate a line of products very different from the chromatic use of the category. These products evoke communication parameters such as: indulgence, flavor and quality. The same that are integrated into each communication element through out the packaging.



A yogurt with unique flavors.
The development of these flavors are in perfect harmony with the range of colors used. Navy blue remains in perfect relevance with the brand and the premium feel. In addition the use of color as a method of differentiation between flavors, generating a long-term sustainable communication line.



Ranger Pops.
Creating stories through the brand.
We were in charge of developing a line of snacks that tell a story through their products. We develop a character that lives in a world full of adventures. Bruss in an innate explorer who likes reading and has a great imagination, this leads him to live stories full of fun and emotions.
Inspired by the style of comic's and children's books, we developed a line of packaging that expresses the attributes of the product, in addition to energizing the character and relating to the differences adventures that Bruss is about to experience.








Bruss the real ranger.
«Life is full of adventures, adventures that become stories, stories that leave us valuable experiences. The Rangers create their stories based on our values: courage, honesty and imagination ».

Cinchona.
Discovering the origins of quinine.
The story goes that a Jesuit from Lojano discovered the cure for malaria and had the gesture of giving it to all humanity. We believe in the purity of this type of gesture and that is why we create a tonic water of the highest quality so that you can proudly share its Andean flavor.
The volcanic water of the Andes mixes with the purity of the quinine in the effervescence of our Cinchona Drinks. A slight sour and bitter flavor highlights its flavor, while the groundwater of the mythical Cayambe volcano gives it an exotic texture for the palate.





STORYTELLING
The legacy of Pedro Leiva.
Un dia, un jesuita del pueblo de Loja, cayó enfermo de malaria, acercándose así a la muerte. Don pedro, con el conocimiento de esta mágica planta, logro curarlo…
El sacerdote después de estar curado, logró tratar y sanar a una autoridad española de Loja. A su vez, esta autoridad curó a la esposa del virrey del Perú, el Conde de Chinchón, de donde viene el nombre que hoy le conocemos a la planta: Cinchona. Al ver las maravillas de la planta, el Conde se la llevó a Europa…
Este pequeño gesto de Don Pedro Leiva significó, no solo lavar la vida de un jesuita, pero se transformó después en la solución para tratar una de las enfermedades más letales de la humanidad, la malaria, salvando así a toda Europa sin ni siquiera darse cuenta.


Contemporary design evoking bygone eras.
The challenge of this project was to develop a brand and packaging that communicates and tells the story of Pedro Leiva. We use illustrations and ornaments that symbolize the cinchona plant, in addition to the use of decorative elements characteristic of the seventeenth century. The use of two main colors such as blue and gold has connotations linked to the purity, history and ties of the ingredients of this product. With the use of color we understand the change in flavor between each bottle.
The use of the Natural cinchona allows the product to be illuminated under the use of black light, highlighting a deep blue color. This is why the main color of the brand is reflected by this color.




Minimizing the environmental impact.
This four-pack development aims to minimize the use of cardboard to make it a more environmentally friendly packaging. Reducing up to 60% of the use of the material, without the need to compromise its structure and functionality. It has a system in the upper part that allows the consumer to grasp the product and providing a high level of support to the packaging.




Soleg.
Sophistication and simplicity as brand hallmarks.
We were in charge of developing a packaging line for the Ecuadorian market. Through typographic use we break the words of the ingredient to give dynamism to the design. This system allows us to adapt any product of this line and generate a sustainable brand architecture over time. The chromatic use allows us to highlight the photograph of the product generating a harmony and balance between all the visual elements.




Brand Architecture.
The idea of this project was to generate an elegant and sophisticated connotation, in addition to the harmony and cleanliness among its elements. This allows the products to stand out on their own. What makes this proposal innovative in the market. It is the use of the "Didot" typography that presents a high contrast between the thin lines and the thick verticals against the beauty of photography.
