The Approach

The Impact

  • Creation of the Emotional Brand Design Model, a bespoke tool for Chivas design planning.

  • Effective design utilises one of the 5 senses to deliver delight during the process, adding value and enabling a brand to ‘punch above its weight’ - a spark or ‘sixth sense’

  • That twist should complement values of the brand, whether discernment or rule-breaking Presented to Chairman of Chivas Brothers and featured in Chivas Brothers cross-functional learning week, for global brand teams
