The Design
About Miltos Primær funktion: Brandidentitet, emballage
Miltos er et brandidentitets- og emballagedesign til et chokolademærke. Konceptet udvider "bean to bar"-idéen til en "tree to bar"-tilgang, der fremhæver kakaoens aroma. Emballagen er lavet af mørkeblåt finpapir med glitterbehandling, lak, der udtrykker et silkemønster, og guldfoliepræg. Æsken åbnes som omslaget på en bog og rummer et smagsdiagramkort, der forklarer hver enkelt smag i detaljer, ligesom man gør med vin. Sortimentsæsken er baseret på billedet af en bogreol. Designet understøtter en rolig brandoplevelse for voksne.

- Production Technology
- The package uses dark blue fine paper selected to express the flavor of dark chocolate. Glitter processing that shines in various colors on the surface of the paper. Furthermore, varnish processing which expressed silk pattern. Gold foil stamping. After die cutting, bonding processing.
- Design Challenge
- Although it is chocolate, it needed a brand which allows people to think about the brand philosophy and its background. They needed to construct a brand experience that was differentiated from others for chocolates which are sold some thousands every year. They enabled them by broadening the chocolate concept and integrating the inspirations acquired from various industries into one offering.
- Research
- They investigated chocolates saturating the market and researched the user experience. Also, a variety of market research was done and they studied the connection between the industry (fashion, fragrance, arts, architecture and sculpture) which seems to have no relationships with chocolate at first glance. As a result, rather than just designing packages, they thought that they can provide a new user experience which is differentiated from others by structuring a brand to create better culture.
- Inspiration
- There was a need for a brand experience which not only encourages users to consume, but also one where people can learn about food, think about sustainability and think about the maker of the ingredients. Therefore, they did away with the image of "sweet chocolate" that children eat and focused on the brand experience that adults can deepen their thoughts about food while enjoying quiet moments.
- Project Duration
- This project started development in Ehime, Japan in August 2018 and was completed in January 2020. The product announcement was made in January 2020.
- Operation Flow
- The package opens like the cover of a book. As you open the case, the flavor chart card is attached. The chocolate tastes are explained in detail as is done with wine and whiskey. The assortment box was designed based on the image of a bookcase. By making the package shaped like a book, the design projects the brand story. They have built a unified world view from package to the online store.
