The Sottos family, based in Germany and having more than fifty years of experience in the production and packaging of coffee products, expanded its range with its most recent series of products designed exclusively for professional use: Espresso Linea Blue, Espresso Linea Rossa & Espresso Linea Aroma.
ABC Design undertook the design of the packaging with the aim of creating packaging that would stand out from other packaging on the market.
Strategically, among the multitude of coffee packaging available on the market, the creative line that would differentiate the product had to be found.
Seeking uniqueness and visual creative ways of approach, coffee itself revealed the image of its aesthetic transformation.
The logo of the series was inspired by the blend of coffee and its delightful aroma. The artistic approach was based on the linear top view of an espresso cup and the aroma that spreads in the space, stimulating coffee cravings.
This symbol became the central pattern and characteristic feature of the packaging.
The pattern was given repetition in such a way that it can be a useful visual and in any other application needed so that it is recognizable for the entire series of coffees, but also for the actions that will follow in the promotion of the product.
The colors of the packaging, red, blue and orange, along with the dominant black color, make the packaging stand out and claim a prominent place in the display cases of coffee houses, breaking thusly the stereotype that wholesale products must remain invisible to the consumer.
An important aspect of the packaging design strategy was its aesthetics to be able to win over the public and at the same time win over the branded demand in catering areas. Sottos Family now gains a strategic high position, both qualitatively and aesthetically, in the packaging and retailing of coffee.
