Branders modernizes the Migros Restaurant and Take-Away brands
Migros Restaurant and Migros Take-Away get a new look. Branders modernized all design elements of the two brands' appearance and created a completely new corporate design landscape for them.
According to Branders, the websites of the Migros Restaurant and Migros Take-Away were clearly getting on in years. Linguistically and visually, they no longer met the requirements of a modern cooperative. For these reasons, Branders dusted off the two corresponding logos and completely overhauled the design landscapes of the brands.
In the logos, the Migros primary colors were supplemented with "Migros Restaurant Warm Grey". In addition, split-screen formats and illustrations with a stamp look were developed, and the use of typography was sharpened. This is intended to take into account the diversity of the target groups as well as their different customer needs, without ever risking losing the reference to the umbrella brand. The implementation of these design adjustments at all relevant touchpoints is to take place successively.
Implementation by means of toolbox
To ensure a smooth, sleek adoption and clean installation of the new design and communication elements by all Migros cooperatives, the agency developed an easy-to-use toolbox. This is based on the communicative central idea and contains templates for advertising material as well as rules for the use of logos or the handling of signaling. However, it also contains concrete design suggestions, for example for packaging or in dealing with menus.
