Unlike traditional ice cream shops, where people eat on the spot, La Mia is an irresistible self-service store offering more than 50 flavors to fill your basket and freezer, and enjoy with your family.

To celebrate the simple Italian way of making gelato, Papanapa was invited to build the verbal and visual universes of the brand and launch it to the market with consistent and joyful communication.

In positioning, it was essential to communicate attributes such as accessibility in price, sophistication in experience, and made-to-consume at home. We arrived at the simple and sensorial tagline: “Gelato Conforto”.

 

For the visual identity system, in addition to an extensive color palette relating to each of the flavors and a surprising typographic combination, the studio created a series of illustrations of containers and popsicles interacting in delicate compositions. Its use on packaging, posters, social media, and uniforms gives the brand a unique and fun presence.

Emphasizing its welcoming personality, La Mia is already charismatic and distinct, ready to win the hearts of ice cream enthusiasts and comfortable moments.

Had the opportunity to execute the whole 3D process from the modeling, texturing & compositing until the final render for the 50+ flavours and visuals.
