Identity
The typographic identity was designed to be minimal, eccentric and compelling at different scales. The water drop in the letter 'o' helped support the key focus of hydration. While the logo is used as is to represent the brand, we experimented with the idea of each product range having its own mnemonic for our packaging - an illustration that was placed as a watermark behind the logo.
Process
With product packaging being the primary mode of interaction with the consumer, we spent an intensive period of three months iterating and prototyping different possibilities of how we might represent the brand to effectively tell our story, stand out from the crowd and stay true to our brand purpose. Here's a little glimpse into the different explorations that paved way to the final outcome.
Packaging Design
The design language of their packaging aimed at communicating as much as we could with as little content possible. Each product range has its own distinct colour and mnemonic, derived from the key ingredient. For example, hydrate+ was represented by tropical green and an illustration of its key ingredient, coconut, as a watermark behind the logo. To support the product claims, we designed graphs and iconography that played around the idea of the '+'. The packaging architecture was developed to be as simple and quick as possible for a consumer to grasp the product range, product name and benefit.
Website Design
Being a digital first brand, the website needed to reflect the visual cues of the packaging design. We did this by using vibrant moving imagery of water along with glass morphism, to give you the effect of water on your screen.
Social Media Templates
As the first brand in India to build on the Nobel Prize-winning Aquaporins-based approach to hydration, Aqualogica needed a fresh new take on packaging to stand out in the Indian market being equally approachable as it is aspirational. Since its launch in 2021, it has expanded its offering to have two more product ranges.
