The Design
About Dona Vitamina Primary Function: Merkeidentitet
Book Text: Dona Vitamina er et merkeidentitetsprosjekt laget for et eksisterende juicemerke. Logotypen viser en skjeløyd viktoriansk dame som nipper til en juice, et humoristisk bilde av en kvinne som eier seg selv. For å utvide den ideen ble det tegnet en serie illustrasjoner av kvinner med ulik etnisk bakgrunn i en sjablongstil, kombinert med korte, morsomme fraser. Illustrasjonene vises på menyer, emballasje, poser, postkort, klistremerker og en stor håndlaget vegg. De fleste trykte artiklene ble produsert med offsettrykk i CMYK-farger, og posene ble silketrykket.

- Production Technology
- Most of the graphic materials were produced in offset in CMYK-scale colors. Offset packaging is suitable for delivery. The wall was handmade by Marcelo Ruis Vargas Martinelli.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge was to reinvigorate the language of the Dona Vitamina brand. The brand is a timeless woman and master of her own will. Allowing the brand's voice to propagate itself in other female representations was the path for the brand to become polyphonic and collective. A series of illustrations of women interacting with elements of everyday life and nature were created, in a stencil style, to represent female polyphony. The voices are with fun phrases, translating the brand's spirit.
- Research
- The Laika method is based on the synergy between linguistic and pictorial skills. Every project begins with the construction of meaning, an affirmation, and the need to design small graphic narratives. Thus, the visual identity project expands upon the detailed and strategic work of building an imaginary universe that represents the culture of the Dona Vitamina brand.
- Inspiration
- Dona Vitamina was need to change its branding language while preserving its original essence of humor (the logotype is a cross-eyed Victorian lady sipping a juice) and the genesis of female empowerment present since the begin. A series of narratives with women was created, building other Donas Vitaminas, which contemplate different ethnicities and feminine manners. Scattered across surface design, packaging, menus and more, these women are the epitome of the brand's fun and timeless spirit.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2020 and finished in September 2020 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
- Operation Flow
- The visual identity project contributes to empowerment the feminine nature of the Dona Vitamina brand, the owner and the majority of the staff are woman. In addition, it allows the client to feel welcomed by the casualness and informality of the brand visual language and its authentic narratives.
