Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Care for pets has come to a new era. Little furry friends are now treated as equals in the family and tend to receive more and more care. For a grooming salon that offers luxurious pampering and top notch treatments for dogs we developed a wide range of branded content and a whole new visual communication to help them tell that new story. Dogs have their own character, style, personality and are displayed as protagonists deserving the ultimate in doggy pampering.
- Inspiration
- Our main inspiration was the evolving of the dog grooming industry to levels never imagined - there are endless treatments, care and spa options, educational and psychological care services offered especially for dogs. For a grooming salon to be relevant and present in that scene it takes a powerful and on-point communication both in terms of visual communication as well as proper language and storytelling.
- Realization and Technology
- A full visual communication was developed, including print, collateral and digital applications.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project is developed at the beginning of 2023 and is currently ongoing.
