The Design

About Chaos Pogo Merkevaremaskot

Wow er en merkevaremaskot skapt for Chaos Pogo, et åpent pubmerke rettet mot unge mennesker. Maskoten er basert på honninggrevlingen, et dyr som ses som et symbol på lidenskap, ungdom og mot. Et flatt hode med hvitt hår, skarpe klør og en markant hale gjør karakteren lett gjenkjennelig. Faste øyne med rosarøde pupiller tilfører et snev av mystikk. Det dristige utseendet gjenspeiler merkets kultur og karakter. Symboler hentet fra maskoten er også brukt på merkevarens produkter, noe som styrker båndet mellom kundene og merket.
