identityChaitime is a set of quirkily packaged

indian teas, targetted at the

affluent and expats.

While the packaging was done

elsewhere, it was my job to extend

that identity into a website and display

systems, and perhaps even

introduce a new dimension to the

product that was so strongly

characterised by it’s indian flavour and

history.

We suggested they hype the premium quotient of the product by treating

it like a rare and precious work of art.

Corporate PanelsThe brief was to set a tone of luxury and

extravagance in the small start-up

office of a real estate company.

We used a combination of

images, text and illustration, to evoke

the lifestyle, that this promising company had

a vision for through its future projects.

would subsequently translate into environment

branding for the event.

MAIN IDENTITY BANNER

AMBIENT BANNERS FOR TRANSIT SPACES

The identity allows for the meaning of the word ‘Pulse’ to come through by the moving black dot.

STATIONERY FOR THE EVENT

identityAn inexpensive yet chic diner format of restaurant targetting young and mid-level

office goers, and teenagers required

a sharp yet friendly identity.

The restaurant hoped to become

a lounge bar at night, hence the

identity had to work for that mood

setting as well.

The idea was to make it like a flag of sorts, to cue the fact that it was international in view of its varied culinary fare.

The property was on the second floor of a busy shopping plaza. The black stood out against the colourful mayhem that is typical of a store filled block. Above is the external façade, which is combination of neon lights for the night, and 3D reflective stickering for the day.

Hanging Food Menus on acrylic for the day and coasters to match, bar menus and coasters for the night.

We rolled out designs for the initial stores across Gujarat and

Maharashtra to begin with, which we then handed over to the

client to take forward once the logic systems were

in place.

Developing a motif and how it would

appear on the beams and columns of a Maharashtra site.

Siyarams’ new storesSiyarams was going in

for a ravamped identity. They wanted to make

their stores hip, but not intimidating for

tier 2 & 3 cities. They wanted the new youth to identify with them. To do this, they hired

Mahendra Singh Dhoni to represent them.

Along with rolling out flagship stores across

the south of India, which is where their

loyalty lay.

We used screens and a suspended backlit sign on the front side of the store, while the mannequins were on the other side. This immediately set them apart from the rest of the stores in the vicinity.

The interiors of the store were divided into two halves. The Right hand side would showcase ready-mades, while the left handside would display their fabrics.

Graphics for schoolPSBB, an alternative

education school wanted to use their walls for graphics to make the ambience

fun. We decided to use them to teach kids things that weren’t taught in school.

kings of India: The Nizam of Hyderabad.

ANC is a small boutique firm in the middle of Mumbai’s tourist district.

There is an abundance of hippies and young back-packers visiting the area, along with a medium sized tourist crowd who are not looking for a bargain, are not on shoe-string budgets, and are more discerning.

While there are countless comprehensive guides to the city, there is a serious dearth of aesthetically designed ones that travellers can keep for posterity. As a communication and design company based out of Fort, we took it upon ourselves to fill that void.

This type of traveller is not necessarily frugal, but is not extravagant either. He/she is looking to cover the basics of the city of interest, but along with a couple of nuggets thrown in. The business executive may even visit more than once, albeit for a couple of days each time. They want something short, and curated for an enriching experience of the city.

The luxury traveller,Senior businessmen, Business-ownersTypically between 35 – 60 years, either very successful, or from affluent backgrounds.

This traveller has much deeper pockets and covers the popular sights along with a recommendations from other affluent friends.

PressThe brief was simple: to depict the spaciousness of this property, which was a rare commodity in the heart of Mumbai.

CorporatePrint Communication The Problem: We do a lot of

things behind the scenes, that reflect in our product. Unfortunately, our customers never get to see that effort. And we don’t brag about it either.

How then, do we command the premium we rightfully deserve?

Superfluous luxuries Fashion over featuresBig endorsersAmenities over basics

Evaluation of competitor communication

So after a lot of research and interviews with customers, people in the market looking to buy and brokers, what did we find about Kalpataru, that really stands out in the minds of the customers, brokers, and employees?The expression: ‘Perfection runs deep’

Design challengesTo keep away from predominant real estate imagery yet keeping within category codes

To stay within the realm of real estate in order to get the right eyeballs, and bring out the ‘back-story’

To look premium

To keep the messaging simple, precise, and to the point.

To not get caught up in unsubstantiated claims, a tangle most real estate companies are condoned for

To be believable

To use the opportunity to educate the viewer on what really goes in to a Kalpataru product

Make the viewer look closely at things he/she may not ordinarily.

In the process conveying that we take care of those minute details.

Key words:

Panels at the sales offices of various propertiesWhile customers wait for a sales executive to attend to them they could educate themselves on the finer details that we want them to know about. This may help their decision swing in our favour.

Perfection runs deep coffee table book and set of coastersA little something to take away for the buyers, to reinforce our philosophy, to help them understand why our apartments are so great, and as a token of our appreciation.

PressLaunch 4 pager for an old property that needed a change in image.

Most potential customers had heard and possibly even sen this project in it’s initial stages. Sales had slowed since its initial launch, a lot had changed on site and it was in need of a new look and something that would intrigue the customer who thought he knew the property.

We repackaged the property to make it more attractive and wholesome while touching upon the various features that made this property such a great choice for new home buyers.

The idea was to pull people to the site, since the property itself was impressive enough to close the deal.

PressThe rest of the campaign

PressFor a new product by Café Coffee Day, called Coffee Day Perfect.

After struggling with what the product offering of this rather average coffee could be, we decided to put a humorous spin on it to bring out the benefit of the product.

The line below reads“Life isn’t perfect. At least your coffee will be.”
