Tag: brand identity

With Hatice Schmidt LaBS we created a whole new Hatice Schmidt cosmetic brand identity including logo development, packaging and website design.

Visionary brand building

Challenge

We were asked to develop a logo and corporate identity for the new cosmetic brand Hatice Schmidt LaBS, which both should transport diversity and expertise of Hatice Schmidt herself. We had also the pleasure to create the packaging design of the first two eyeshadow palettes HOLY and DAY. The appearance of packaging should have a high-class look but at the same time integrate a character of an urban grunge style.

Background

Hatice Schmidt, one of the most famous German Beauty YouTuber, describes herself as rough and edgy. Grown up in Berlin Neukölln – a very hard neighborhood – she learned to assert herself early. Her new brand Hatice Schmidt LaBS should therefore reflect her strength and independence as well as her experiences. The cosmetic product standards are very high, as she has been testing and evaluating them for almost a decade.
Her indie brand in the high-end segment is to establish itself in the cosmetics market and provide competition in the premium segment with high-quality formulations and unusual packaging designs.

Logo development

For the logo of Hatice Schmidt LaBS, we perfectly combine urban grunge with high quality. Therfore, one of the most modern fonts was overlaid in a staggered manner.  As a result, the luxurious appearance is disturbed by the distortion in a way that suggests the origin of Hatice Schmidt.

Packaging design

The HOLY eyeshadow palette includes colors that are perfectly suited to special occasions and the DAY palette includes colors for everyday make-up. Based on urban grunge style, we have designed the lettering of the eye shadow packagings Holy and Day in graffiti look. The high quality of the products is reflected in the varnish.

Website design

New cosmetic products need a new website. Therfore, we designed the surface for the web shop for the products of Hatice Schmidt LaBS. In the near future it should be extended by further products and constantly updated with new content. Strategically we designed a concept that allows intuitive operation and clearly highlights the products for the user. Implementation of  the visual presentation and managing the communication and coordination with the IT service provider on top. Last butnnot least, we produced animations of the logo and short video clips for social media content.

In 2019, Schwarzkopf relaunched the packaging design of it‘s natural shampoo subline „Schauma Nature Moments“. Furthermore, they not only relaunched, but got the eco-label on top! Additionally, they added new ingredient variants and the „Nature Moments Hair Smoothies“ subline was implemented into the portfolio.

Briefing

Because natural ingredients are continously on the run, they stay relevant for the thoughtful consumer. Though, those who care for naturality are now also seeking for more environmental responsibility. Following, the already trusted line „Nature Moments“ needed to be updated to stay relevant and to attract even more responsible consumer to the brand.

– Enhance the natural appeal of Nature Moments
– Modernize visuals to show appealing and gentle natural ingredients
– Communicate environmental responsibility
– Integrate the new eco-label

Our Work
We created an appealing packaging design, that has a strong stopping power and is very playful and designed openly.
The design is focusing on the natural ingredients. Therefore, those are displayed in a modern and dynamic way.
Inspired by food bowls, because they are very appealing to the conciuos consumer, the ingredients are shown in a top view.
So, we catched up with the latest food trend and used the insights in the beauty sector.

Moreover, the open design on the transparent label increases the effect of the transparency of the bottle.
So, this is giving contrast to the Schauma baseline, which is now visually clearly seperated.
Not only by the transparency, rather, because of the emotional focus on the ingredients.
Furthermore, additionally to the new design of the ingredients, we did also add illustrations, so that empower the playfulness.
Finally, we need to find a good way to integrated the eco-label icon.

Even more, the modern typo does help us to enhance the fresh concept.
Especially, the subline „Hair Smoothies“ by Nature Moments is refined by a typo and that gives us a „yummie“ feeling.

Logo Development
The new brand name got a modern and technological font with natural look & feel.

Our Work
For FA we developed a new overall packaging design concept. Communicating the power of fragrance by strong and emotional surrounding stories. The stories are told within different pillars such as “Yoghurt“, “Cream&Oil“, “Oriental Moments“ and more. The different pillars are visually cluttered by geometric shapes.
„Cream&Oil“ designs are focusing on sensoriality and premiumness by soft shapes and golden refinements. FA Moments is the trendy line of experimental and powerful fragrances, expressing the new motto “live the moment!“. And there are more pillars to explore!

Our Work
Palette and Baries have been connected throughout many years of collaboration. In 2018 we got the exciting challenge to go the next big step with our well known brand for the Palette Natural Color Creme packaging design relaunch 2018.
The new design creates a central round shape along with the new logo which gives the packaging a new individual branding. Keeping the historic green color code, we stressed the natural impact by implementing natural lightening and textures. We put a new focus on the natural ingredients and moved from the classic drop to modern, food inspired ingredient visualisations. Hereby we developed an extended color coding that fits the hair colors and therefore creates a strong brand block and shelf impact.

Logo Development
The new brand name got a modern and technological font with natural look & feel.

Model approach
Palette naturals got a new face and personality.
We aimed for more natural and approachable models, with naturally flowing hair and diverse attitudes.
