Gelati Sky is a boutique, premium gelati range. The story of Gelati Sky has a strong personality driven by Gelati Sky founder Paul Scalisi’s memories of growing up in Rome, eating gelati – ‘a world where every moment seemed frozen in an amazing sensory assault and every cloud in the sky made you feel it was about to rain gelato’. We were looking for something that was strikingly unique, represented his story and would create conversation. The communication platform of ‘it’s what dreams taste like’ was derived out of the brand strategy definition for Gelati Sky conducted by Brand DNA.

2008 was a rocky year, the global financial crisis was on everyone lips. So, for our client christmas present we wanted a gift that would offer a little hit of hope and sweetness in tough times, and chocolate cheers everyone up.

We sourced the most stunning chocolate in the world that looked just as sublime as it tasted from our good friends at Ganashe Chocolate. We then designed the packages to reflect the premium quality of the chocolate and to inspire a cosy, peaceful moment of calm in such turbulent times.

Over the last decade or more we’ve worked-on a number of project with fashion label Hemisphere. Hemisphere are a fiercely independent mens label with and ‘everyday denim sub-brand – you can see some of the work we designed with them here. In 2006 we worked on some fabric designs for a range of their shirts, which became their best selling lines, and as a result decided a couple of years later to form a partnership to launch a new label of premium mens shirts featuring custom designed printed fabrics.

We often talk about the role of design in expressing different personalities for a brand. We work in the space every day, but rarely get the opportunity to explore the expression of multiple brand personalities for the one product type. We decided it was time to walk the talk and set ourselves a challenge; to develop five unique, integrated packaging strategies based upon an identical product – a range of (very delicious) natural fruit cordials.

An Italian Cheese Story
Our initial brief for this project was to develop an Italian story for a range of seven Italian style cheese SKUs.
The brand name (now long forgotten) was unremarkable (I mentioned it was long forgotten) with a slight Eastern European feel. The brand had a foothold in a number of local delicatessens, but the Fresh Cheese Company had negotiated the opportunity to trial the brand in National supermarket chain Woolworths. If we could create a strong enough brand story on shelf to impress the buyers at Woolworths, the Fresh Cheese Company had a
winner on their hands.

Hemisphere is a mens label we worked with over a number of years including designing their brand identity
and marketing collateral. When Hemisphere decided to launch the sub brand ‘Hemisphere Jeans‘ they
called on us to lead the brand design work. Hemisphere Jeans is a more casual line of everyday mens jeans,
tees and knits aimed at style conscious males 25-35 years old. The new brand identity for Hemisphere Jeans needed to communicate the new more casual style brand proposition whilst visually retaining a link to the Hemisphere brand.

The design solution was created around the concept of everyday found objects which reflected the philosophy of the new range and became the key visual elements of the brand. We found a range of quirky every day objects that when photographed took-on a new sense of interest and special-ness. We overlaid  the objects with a ‘makers mark’ visual element borrowed from the Hemisphere master brand identity to create a stylish, yet un-precious visual brand language with a smart, everyday street feel. We applied the new Hemisphere Jean brand identity to a set of swing tags, postcards, business cards and the flagship store interior.
