The ice cream brand, which is over 50 years old, has been given a colourful, illustrated, new look by Love Creative, which aims to be more “modern”and “vibrant”.
Ice cream brand Häagen-Dazs has had a brand refresh and taken on new packaging to “simplify”it and make it more appealing to a “millennial”audience.
The rebrand has been completed by design consultancy Love Creative, and features a logo now set in burgundy rather than gold, black and white as it was previously.
More “Contemporary”Burgundy
The burgundy hue used across the packaging previously has also been updated from a “regal, dark red”to a “plum red”, says David Palmer, executive creative director at Love Creative, which aims to make the packaging feel more “contemporary”.
The packaging now features various colourful illustrations to match different ice cream flavours, which have been completed by 13 different commissioned artists, including Santtu Mustonen and Kustaa Saksi.
Love’s design process entailed tasting all 46 Häagen-Dazs flavours, and creating mood and word boards to reflect each one. A brief was then given to each artist to design bespoke patterns for flavour variants.
“Less Fussy and Olde-Worlde”
“From vanilla through to coffee or caramel ice cream, you’re in a beigey world,”says Palmer. “But when you taste it, there’s a completely different experience and we wanted to get that across. The burgundy and gold design was also hard to navigate in the freezer; once people familiarise themselves with each illustration style, the flavours will become easy to find.”
The bright, illustrated design has been influenced by “Scandinavian style“, says Palmer, which harks back to founder Reuben Mattus, who started the company in 1961 and was influenced by the “classy and stylish“design from the European region.
The new look also aims to target a younger audience, says Palmer: “We wanted to simplify everything and make it more vibrant and modern, and less fussy and olde-worlde. Häagen-Dazs had allowed itself to age, and had lost contact with the younger end of its audience.”
Last month, the brand refresh and new packaging launched in the UK. A print and TV advertising campaign accompanied the roll-out. A global roll-out is not yet confirmed.
