Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Known for its flavorful burst of refreshment, Mirinda is driven by a legacy of launching new and surprising fruity innovations. However in recent years, the brand determined it needed to drive greater awareness and distinction in the Carbonated Soft Drink (CSD) category. Mirinda needed a newly differentiated and updated point of view to stand out in the current market.
- Inspiration
- The Design Team approached this brand restage with the tastes of Gen-Z in mind. Creativity is cultural currency for this digital-first and hyper-visual generation, where memes, emojis, and remakes are worth a million words. We know the updated look and feel had to be more vibrant, authentic, creative and modern for Gen-Z to take notice.
