The Design

About Meet Rebrand Marca

Meet é uma churrascaria coreana voltada para jovens. A tarefa do cliente para Mengchao, Hao e Sijia é criar uma direção de arte e identidade visual para expressar a imagem vívida da marca e promover as diversas carnes. Os formatos das carnes na grelha apresentam geometrias naturalmente. Esta ideia leva-os ao marco do conceito, ligando diferentes carnes, mariscos e vegetais com geometrias específicas. Várias combinações de formas e padrões dão às geometrias um toque final lúdico e quente.

Design Challenge: How to turn the strong emotional/physical feeling we get from bbq into a consistent but flexible visual language.
Research: Our research included 3 parts

1. Communications with the client.

2. Feeling research. we ate a lot of bbq(lol) to immerse ourselves in the emotion which bbq can directly convey. Moodboard is the result of this part. in the moodboard.

3. visual research.
Inspiration: The shapes of meats on the grill naturally present geometries, beef tongue as circle, pork neck as rounded rectangle, and beef rolls as cylinder. This idea leads us to the milestone of our concept, connecting different meats, seafoods and vegetables with specified geometries. Various shape combinations and patterns give the geometries a playful and hot final touch. We also take advantage of the most basic graphical element - grid, to represent grills, which is unexpected but also reasonable.
Project Duration: 3 mouths
Executed in NYC and shanghai
Operation Flow: This project started with a conversation with the client. Through the conversation, we find out the ethos of the brand. Through further conversation and research, we gathered more information about the tone and language of Meet. Base on that, we developed the look and feel for Meet. Then, we apply this visual language to applications around this brand.
