Trofi Meal Shake Brand Strategy & Visual Identity

Overview:

Trofi is a nutritional supplement company that sells meal shakes. They positioned them selves in the market to focus on real food with actual potentable doses of fruits and vegetables. Most competitors offer very little actual doses of nutrition.

When we started out, we didn't even have a product. I needed to start from scratch. With a comprehensive branding strategy in place, I was able to create an identity and website.

Phase 1: Strategy Foundation

Before I started designing, I needed to establish the basic tenets of what the identity needs to communicate. I with the help of the strategy team researched and created a comprehensive strategy plan. I translated that strategy plan into basic brand attributes that could be visually communicated through the identity.

Phase 2: Moodboards

I translated the strategy plan and brand foundation into basic brand attributes that could be visually communicated through the identity. The moodboards not only gave visual examples of the brand attributes but the exact strategy on how those elements communicate the strategy.

Phase 2: Visual Identity Direction 1 & 2 Concepting

I developed three different stylistic directions for the visual identity that were significantly different in execution but still translated the visual brand attributes. Direction one focused on communicating a "real food" utilizing organic shapes and natural colors to create a playful and appetizing feel. Direction two was similar to one but with a much more streamlined and modern look.

Phase 2:  Visual Identity Direction 3

The third direction simplified everything and focused on the premium and elite aspect of the brand. It focused on an emerald and gold color palette and simplified modern logo to communicate high quality and an athletic feel.

Phase 3: Brand Strategy Playbook & Style Guide

 The final stage of the process for the visual identity was to organize the brand strategy and style guide into one document that the client can use as a guiding light for the future. It includes the brand foundation, target personas, messaging and visual identity guidelines.

Phase 4: Website Creation

The process of web creation featured an intense process of content strategy, information architecture, site map, wireframes and final design and implementation.
