Yūgō : Ripping up the rule book

Project Overview

Yūgō was founded by entrepreneur, Renad who wanted to spice up meals by giving them a quick, affordable fusion twist. She asked us to help develop her sauce brand from scratch, promoting delicious, out-there flavours in a confident way.

Brand narrative and personas

Using audience insights, we narrowed down Yūgō’s consumer base to help us construct a brand narrative that would have a positive impact.

Visual identity

Taking the idea of ripping up the rule book and fusing flavours, we layered patterned designs - reminiscent of diverse cultures - that looked like they’d been torn and put back together to create a memorable look and feel.
