Mindful Chef
Health brands tend to demand an almost evangelical commitment. Great in theory, but real life usually gets in the way. So we helped this ambitious start-up stand out by taking a more down-to-earth approach.
We delivered:
Brand strategy, visual identity, website and packaging.
Our approach
We asked people what they really wanted from a health brand. And the answer? Balance.
Our brief
Mindful Chef is an ambitious start-up offering meal kits that help people follow a lean and healthy lifestyle. The fresh meal kit market is crowded, competitive and commoditised. Our job was to define and create a brand that would attract the attention of busy people everywhere.
Brand strategy
We spoke to lots of potential consumers – from city boys to creative entrepreneurs – and no-one wanted to compromise. Why should a healthy, mindful lifestyle have to come at the expense living life to the full? This insight helped us define Mindful Chef’s purpose: to make healthy living easy, empowering busy people to work and play as hard as they liked. We called this Modern Mindfulness.
Visual identity
We used the idea of balance to bring Modern Mindfulness to life visually. A handwritten logo was supplemented by a set of food-inspired patterns that can be applied to 50% of any element.
Website and packaging
The brand’s online presence set out to make ordering a meal kit simple and intuitive, while the packaging was designed to get noticed as people carried it home.
Ragged Edge stood out for their ability to combine practical strategic thinking with beautiful creative. We’ve been blown away by the overwhelming positive response the brand has received from both customers and journalists alike. We’re thrilled.
