Burger King Rebrand

I was part of the beginning stages of exploring how Burger King could persuade customers to try its newly fresh ingredients—showcasing new claims like, “a hundred percent real” or “no artificial ingredients.” But later, we found that in order for consumers to trust these claims, we knew we needed to change their attitudes around the brand itself.

That led to an entire brand makeover that not only celebrates its design history and irreverent personality, but more importantly ensures our modern consumers could feel really good about consuming the reconsidered, better-for-you ingredients.
