Client Brief

Develop the look and feel of a minimally branded microsite dedicated to the nation’s favourite sauce. Several solutions had already been presented to Heinz before I arrived, but all were rejected for being too “chintzy.”

My Creative Solution

Following some initial (and slightly messy) experimentation, a visually bold and vivid coloured typographic aesthetic emerged as the undisputed champion.

This aesthetic exuded a sense of freshness and vibrancy that resonated powerfully. My solution received first-time sign-off from Heinz. They loved the new direction.

Design Iterations

In the preliminary design stages I explored using halftones, inspired by the punk ethos of poster creation. This approach exuded a bold and striking presence, reminiscent of an era defined by its impactful visuals. Each idea carried a subtle undertone of nostalgia, evoking a sense of longing for bygone times.

Saucy Out Takes!

At the heart of the project lay the subject of sauces. It was impossible to avoid the temptation to experiment with the tactile and sensory aspects that make sauces so endearing.
