PetPlate believes in providing real food for dogs. Made with human-grade ingredients in a USDA kitchen. Healthy food for your dog means a longer, happier life and convenience allows for more time cuddling and less time shopping, preparing, and cooking.
We were asked to bring the PetPlate purpose to life, and identify a new visual narrative that clearly articulates what the brand stands for. The refresh was approached by shifting the brand values from the “what” to the “why.” Not to solely focus on the quality of PetPlate meals, or the convenience offered, but to convey why it matters—good food means happier healthier dogs. We helped PetPlate formulate a mission that prioritized giving the precious resource of time back to their customers and pets. Because walk time is more meaningful than shop time, park time is more fun than prep time, and cuddle time is more important than clean up time.
The new identity expresses this adoration for the health and well-being of dogs through a series of optimistic design cues, type-driven, ingredient-forward messaging, and aspirational imagery that portrays the special bond between pet and owner. Every consumer touchpoint was intentionally designed to strike a balance between premium and natural. Bold typography and a systematic approach to information were devised to feel elevated and trustworthy, while textural illustrations offer a new flavor of the fun and magic that PetPlate customers have come to expect from the brand.
