About Benin Prekės ženklas, Vizualinė identitetas
Benin – tai prekės ženklo identitetas, sukurtas šeimos valdomai kavos įmonei, turinčiai daugiau nei 30 metų patirties. Šis identitetas padeda plėsti kavinių verslą, pereinant į franšizės modelį. Šypsantis Kerubino ikona tampa centriniu simboliu, nukreipiančiu į Renesansą ir Italiją – aukščiausios kokybės kavos gimtinę. Ryškūs rožinės, mėlynos, geltonos ir raudonos spalvų tonai kartu su angeliškų debesų tekstūra kuria pakilią nuotaiką. Puodeliai kavai išsinešti ir popieriniai maišeliai spausdinami ant natūralaus popieriaus CMYK ofsetiniu būdu, o metalinės dėžutės išsaugo kavos kokybę.

- The creation of Benin’s visual system was a result of an in-depth process that included the discovery of the client’s business drivers and company culture. Several challenges were identified: 1) Effective brand communication towards three different targets. 2) A strong symbol that unifies a heavenly pleasant experience and family values. 3) Brand standardization, so it can be successfully applied to the franchise concept: from interior design and packaging to marketing collaterals. 4) Using an affordable packaging material.
- Research
- After initial consultations, two workshops were conveyed to the client. The first one discovered the brand’s unique story, philosophy, personality, target market, and benchmark. In the second one, the client had to choose between three different brand personality mood boards, identifying the one that is best aligned with their unique market position. Benin was identified as a kind, warm, cheerful, and wise friend, which was interpreted with the Cherub icon and accompanying aesthetics. The design prototype was tested at every brand touchpoint before creating the final identity.
- Inspiration
- Coffee lovers think that coffee is a divine drink that tastes like heaven. Whether it is a part of their morning ritual or a pause in a busy day, a cup of coffee gives them instant happiness. That heavenly good feeling was used as a starting point for Benin's brand concept, infusing its divine spirit into coffee shops through a symbol of an angel – a happy Cherub serving coffee. The underlying symbolism of the Renaissance movement is no coincidence; it illustrates the renaissance of the soul after having coffee, as well as the connection to Italy, the homeland of premium coffee.
- Project Duration
- The project started in May 2021. in Rijeka and finished in August 2021. in Rijeka.
- Operation Flow
- The brand had to speak to three levels of coffee lovers: basic, intermediate, and advanced. Most of them are Millennials and Gen Z, so the colors used are their favorite baby pink and blue tones. The addition of strong yellow and red pinpoint the energetic brand personality. Product packaging is designed as a secondary advertising mechanism and aligned with the target’s expectations of sustainability, using paper cups, jute tote bags, and tins. The texture with angelic clouds is present in multiple details, constantly transmitting the heavenly good feeling.
