Production Technology

The project was realized through the use of various printing techniques, from flexography for pizza packaging to screen printing with Pantone colors for the flyer menu. As a project approach, participatory planning was implemented to involve the client in the selection phase and to better understand the decisions taken and the direction followed.

Design Challenge

It was very difficult to represent the brand and its so many different souls in a single graphic sign that made it recognizable and different from its competitors, and the processing of pizza delivery materials was complex as they can only be printed with certain techniques that do not possess a high degree of resolution and precision, to remedy the problem we have carried out an extensive research on the most suitable technique and compatible with the design and redesigning the packaging several times to obtain the result.

Research

The flow of design was based on the search for a friendly and "greedy" image that represented the values of the brand, the goal was to be represented of haute cuisine but with a friendly and playful appearance. The result has allowed the brand to be very characteristic and to be always reconfortable, becoming in a short time an icon of the same and its peculiarities.

Inspiration

The brand identity has been influenced a lot by the patterns derived from the shapes that are visualized on a pizza, this has led us to create different textures useful for the realization of the corporate materials and the layout of the location.
In addition, the extreme friendly aspect has led us to design a pizza that is smiling like a pigeon, with a tongue that comes out of its mouth as a sign of liveliness and sympathy.

Project Duration

The project start in July 2016 in Milan and finished in December 2016 in Milan.
