Monochrome Crisp Branding

Pringles Premium Packaging Flaunts a Fancier Flavor

— March 28, 2012 — Lifestyle
Most Western consumers are very familiar with the iconic red tubes of those tasty curved chips -- but would they recognize them now? Pringles Premium packaging strips the snack containers of their punchy colors and vibrant graphics in favor of a limited palette to promote more sophisticated munchies.

Niklas Hessman has reworked the popular product's image with just two hues, black and white, but with these manages to communicate a greater depth of the delicious crisps. The refined rebranding is tailored to compete with upmarket edibles and introduces exotic recipes and savory combinations. The consumer is encouraged to consider Pringles Premium packaging in a more thoughtful way than the mainstream line of potato chips, and to discover the complexity of its tempting contents without the elaborateness of a dramatic label.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Packaging - The trend of minimalist packaging is stripping products of flashy graphics and colors to convey sophistication and elegance.
2. Upmarket Snacks - The rise of upmarket snacks is introducing more refined flavors and exotic recipes to cater to consumers seeking gourmet options.
3. Deliberate Branding - Brands are adopting deliberate branding strategies that encourage consumers to engage with products in a more thoughtful and discerning manner.
Industry Implications

2. Graphic Design - Graphic designers can find opportunities in rebranding projects to create minimalist and refined packaging designs that convey quality and elegance.
3. Marketing and Advertising - Marketing and advertising professionals can help brands develop deliberate branding strategies that encourage consumers to explore the complexity of products without relying on flashy labels.
