About Miltos Ensisijainen tehtävä: Brändi-ilme, Pakkaussuunnittelu

Miltos on suklaabrändin brändi-ilme ja pakkaussuunnittelu. Konsepti laajentaa pavusta patukkaan -idean puusta patukkaan -lähestymistavaksi, joka korostaa kaakaon aromia. Pakkaus on valmistettu tummansinisestä hienopaperista, jossa on glitter-käsittely, silkkikuviota ilmentävä lakkaus ja kultafoliopainatus. Kotelo avautuu kuin kirjan kansi ja sisältää makukorttitaulukon, joka selittää jokaisen maun yksityiskohtaisesti, kuten viinien kohdalla tehdään. Lajitelmalaatikko perustuu kirjahyllyn mielikuvaan. Suunnittelu tukee rauhallista brändikokemusta aikuisille.

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.
