About Pure Green 視覺形象

《清油》係重慶一個火鍋餐廳品牌嘅視覺形象設計。以清油鍋嗰種鮮青花椒嘅綠色作為品牌主色，同當地市場常見嘅紅色形成強烈對比。一個名叫「Mobee」嘅角色形象係整個識別系統嘅核心符號。Mobee結合咗正圓形同負十字形嘅元素，用麻將牌代替五官，表達出獨立、神秘同活力嘅個性。品牌符號被廣泛應用於各種形式同媒介之上，旨在拉近品牌同年輕消費者之間嘅距離。

Unique Properties: Pure Green is a representative work, which uses a young "national trend" way to upgrade the original brand. In order to make the brand exclusive symbols present in front of consumers in more diverse forms and media. The designers deepen and extend it again, and create a lovely and mysterious IP image, while further promoting the brand, the distance between the brand and the consumer is drawn.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project covers a total of 256 square meters. In brand operation, the designers try to turn disadvantage into advantage. The fresh pepper hotpot researched by Pure Green through years of precipitation and technological breakthrough is an important core asset of the brand, which should not be avoided, but should be vigorously promoted.

Production Technology: The IP image represents the positive circle and the negative cross element. The national essence mahjong is used to replace the physical five senses to create an IP image that adheres to independence, mystery and vitality.
Design Challenge: The biggest problem between the original brand and space design is that there is no clear brand positioning, so there is no presentation of brand culture personality and no clear brand memory point. To this end, the designers take the unique green color of fresh pepper hotpot as the brand color to echo the large red area.
Research: In the process of communicating with the founder's team, the designers understand their concerns. In the market environment where "red oil hotpot" is popular in Chongqing, the bottom of green hot pot is too niche, which is not in line with the cognition of Chongqing locals. Therefore, how to upgrade the brand image as a whole, at the same time, get more consumers' cognition, even brand recognition, has become the focus of this design.
Inspiration: The designers take Chongqing's impressions of "tradition and innovation", "modern and retro", "market and fashion", which are all concepts of strong collision and coexistence. In the selection of the overall visual style, they develop a brand specific "national trend" model to match the target consumer groups. At the same time, they deepen the popular national fashion style with unique brand genes, so the concept of "Green Trend" comes into being.
Project Duration: The project started in July 2019 in Chongqing and finished in December in Chongqing.
Operation Flow: Among the red oil hotpot, fresh pepper hotpot is the best way to innovate and salute the traditional hot pot, also links the Pure Green with the young people in Chongqing. The designers do not weaken its difference, but strengthen it more, and use visual language to highlight the unique brand personality.
