WKD

WKD gets a funky on trend rebrand that projects the brand back into the target audience it lost.

 WKD has recently refreshed it's design of it's packaging to reflect a modern approach to the brand in an attempt to ditch the clichéd look the brand has carried since it's launch. This is done through a refreshed pallet of colour and new typography alongside new shape bottles that tie the brand together.















I think the refresh of the brand is perfect since it allows WKD which to many younger aged drinkers who are WKD's target market deem tacky and 'cheap' to look like a trendy product to be seen drinking, following from recent refreshes in other formats of alcohol sales we have seen brands refine their packaging and overall design style and I see that WKD has followed suit but by also ramping up the colour scheme they allow that playful nature the brand has always wanted to incorporate back into the design and feel of the product.

Scarefest Map

Alton Towers Resort released the 2016 Scarefest map, and as expected it's busy and complicated.

The map even includes a 'Where's Wally' of sorts in that people should hunt for the four main Scarefest characters on the map. An annoyance I find from a practical point of view is that the map isn't useful in terms of it's scale and location. For example, it situates the Tree Top Quest adjacent to the rear of Sharkbait Reef, when infact these two attractions are at opposite ends of the park and are at l...

EE Rebranding Process

UK mobile phone operators Orange and T-Mobile who merged to become Everything Everywhere, later simplified their name to EE. As of 2016, EE is soaring in profits, seeing a 10% increase to over £6.5bn in revenue in the three years from 2010 to 2013. More recently EE was purchased by the UK communication giant British Telecom Group more commonly known as BT. The success of EE’s new status as a highly successful mobile phone operator is underpinned by that of their successful rebranding strategy. This sentence itself is a relative contradiction as from the two years that followed from 2010, when Orange and T-Mobile merged the company traded under the brand name ‘Everything Everywhere’ this didn’t appear to catch on, rollout of this brand was slow, and to many people Orange and T-Mobile were trading exactly as they always have. Small trial concept Everything Everywhere stores were launched and the predicted feedback came back that the company was struggling to get the new bran...
