About Stickman Kaubamärgi identiteet

Stickman on kaubamärgi identiteet, mis on loodud Kansas City mullitee kohviku jaoks. Identiteet põhineb sõbralikul maskoti tegelasel, kes esindab kohviku kahte peamist toodet – mulliteed ja vardas suupisteid. Kunstiteos on loodud digitaalse illustratsiooni ja vektorjoonistuse abil, mistõttu on disaini võimalik suurendada ilma selguse kaotuseta. Stickman esineb bänneritel, valgustatud sildil, põlledel, kardinatel, tassidel, kõrtel ja kohaletoimetamiskottidel, mis on valmistatud metallist, kangast ja polüpropüleenist. Eesmärk on luua soe ja kaasav välimus kõikvanuselistele külastajatele.
