Functional Foods & Beverages

Functional Foods & Beverages Introduction If you’re a brand manager, marketing professional, package designer or student about to begin a brand or package design initiative, it’s essential to be aware of context. R.BIRD “Patterns” are published reports based on our observations and professional experience as brand & package designers that provide insights into common practices within a chosen product category.

Method Armed with digital cameras and note pads, our designers visit retail environments and online marketing to observe product presentation in its natural habitat. We then perform a closer study in search of common design patterns and competitive opportunity throughout the category.

The Hangover

The Hangover Some of us have been there. Now, with careful planning and your choice of remedies, we can all go on that Thursday night bender and still function well enough to get through Friday.

Response Hovering between a sophisticated energy brand and a legit pharmaceutical, these brands lean on graphic elements found on OTC and Rx medicines. Efficacy is imperative, as well as taste. The cold aluminum can may actually double as an ice pack for direct application to your pounding skull.

Milk Alternatives

Milk Alternatives

Milk Alternatives Milk alternatives are ever increasing in popularity. Clean white bottles with splashes of bright color imply a healthy alternative for the lactose intolerant and vegan diets. Unlike Boost and Ensure, these reach beyond the senior citizen market to engage health-conscious consumers of all ages.

Response Milk, once constrained to the ubiquitous rectangular carton now leverages structures and graphics as a key differentiator for new brands. Numerous Milk alternatives and yogurt based drinks tap into the white shrink wrap bottle. Califia Farms’ unique bottle and wide product range works hard and gets attention.

Beauty

Beauty Collagen, anti-oxidants and super hydrating formulas designed to keep your skin hair and nails looking their best. You may not see all of these at your local convenience store, so try Sephora or other online channels. Response This category allows the designer to push the envelope and tap into elements seen in cosmetics and personal care categories...Glass bottles, understated and delicate design.

Cannabis Infused

Cannabis Infused The uptick in legalized cannabis has made its way into the infused beverage category with some smartly designed products...and some...not so smart.

Response Dixie, Zasp and Quigley’s successfully establish interesting and compelling brands through design. Cannabis Energy Drink has launched with minimal effort in design, branding or positioning to differentiate.

Waves

Waves Graphic expressions of water, or waves conveys a clean and refreshing sensation associated with the brand. Response While being somewhat of a clichĂŠ, wavey lines can still be executed with a newfound freshness. The examples above show some interesting and understated expressions in support of typography, flavoring and brand.

Paleo Superfoods

Paleo Superfoods

Paleo Superfoods Ancient grains, nuts, berries and other unprocessed foods make up a Paleolithic (Superfood) diet. There are many offerings in this group as this diet gains popularity.

Response Many brands are either entirely focused on, or have offerings that cater to the paleo diet. Health Warrior’s Chia Bar and GoMacro capture a compelling colorful aesthetic as does Moriga’s Superfoods.
