KAY’s GochuJang

2024, 3 Weeks

Logo Design, Full Brand Kit, and Business System for Product

Kay’s was created to personify and amplify an often unvaryingly and straightforwardly branded product into a zesty, bright, and exciting option on the shelves of grocery stores.

The brand revolves around the founder and mascot, ‘Kay,’ a striking, extroverted, and strong-willed Korean friend of mine, known for enjoying painfully high levels of spice. The brand is punchy, bright, exciting, a little mischievous, and ties Kay to her rich culinary Korean heritage.

I worked to design an entire Brand and Business Package for a Gochujang product, including thorough brand guidelines.

Deliverables:

Brand Kit: Logo, Mascot, Iconography, Brand Colors, Typography

Business Kit: Stationary, Business Cards, and Brand Merchandise

Gochujang?

Gochujang is a fermented chili paste, widely used in Korean cuisine. It is fermented for several months in order to develop a complex flavor profile of spicy, sweet, savory, and umami, adding depth and richness to any dish.
