Quotes

  • Most of the research went into understanding the category, and then deliberately avoiding its tropes.
  • Taste is hard to visualise, especially with a drink that many haven’t tried. But expressive type can be a shortcut to flavour.
  • The typefaces aren’t meant to sit quietly together – they overlap, they compete for space. It’s what gives the brand its fizz.
  • What I’m most proud of is how joyful the brand feels, and how confidently it steps outside category norms.
  • Overlapping the stickers in a way that threatens to obscure information was important to creating a contemporary feel
  • There were two main goals of the design: to communicate taste and to honour the spirit of the Madre.
  • By jostling vibrant colours and nostalgic typefaces together we were able to hint at the drinks’ lively taste.
  • We chose to reflect the mother through memories of childhood.
  • We decided it would be a good idea to keep the illustration of the Madre's face and the font of the wordmark, as these felt like the most salient features of the branding.
  • The ICA is and has always been a progressive institution that brings together the different and new.
