The Design

About Timing Sauce Branding

Timing Sauce is a branding project created for a sauce producer. The work covers a new brand name, a logo, packaging and sales materials. The former name referred to pasta, which did not match the products sold, so a new name was chosen. The logo uses abstract shapes that suggest a sauce and a smiling face. Color research guided the palette, and several color combinations were tested to convey joy and appetite. The labels are printed on waterproof glossy PVC and are made in three sizes for 120, 150 and 180 millilitre bottles.

Design Challenge: In the end, They came up with some color combinations, but the brown color was a little troubling since brown is not good for appetite (except chocolate). After we show to people, the results were positive.
Research: They researched how to communicate with people through colors, it's tricky to use such a bold color in the food industry, so the research objectives are to pick and try different color combinations to deliver the right emotion/feeling in the right color. During the research, they found some data about the meaning of colors and tried to match different combinations, also need to consider the connection with the products.
