Cheburashkini Brothers

This poster series is part of the identity design for the Russian dairy brand Cheburashkini Brothers. Its main idea is based on typography, respectively the first letters of the products. A display sans-serif typeface with a set of weights was developed together with a system of graphics inspired by ancient Slavic symbols for seed, grass, earth or other things related to farming. They appear as additional design elements of the identity and play a crucial role, particularly in the creation of the posters. The posters take the first letter of one of the dairy products as their starting point, while the graphics are layered and interwoven around the letter for creating super-imposed images using the matching symbol on a clear, uniform grid. With only two matt colours, a prime colour for the letters and a supporting colour for the graphics, this results in interesting minimalist and contemporary designs.
