The concept of 1 VI

VI (Visual Identi~) means a company's visual identity system.

Corporate culture is the expression of the product's cultural value, including product modeling characteristics, trademark features, packaging design, brand philosophy, price positioning and service standards. These are the problems that the corporate visual identity system (VI) has to solve.

The concept of VI also plays an important role in the process of establishing the visual brand image of packaging design, and it also reflects the principle of individuality and unity of packaging design.

2 Application of VI concept in packaging design of brand visual image

From the perspective of visual psychological cognition, brand is a kind of distinguishing sign. It is a shorthand sign and communication code that is falsely recognized. It is a kind of affinity. Information. For consumers, the brand is a tool for them to recognize the goods and make a positive judgment on the goods, and even to reduce the shopping time by virtue of the experience gained from the brand. Many examples in reality prove that when a certain brand of a product is promoted as a single product, the packaging design focuses on the development of individual elements, and when the product is updated, new products are added, or a continuation product is derived, the products are Diversity raises the issue of requiring a uniform visual image of packaging. From R&D to large-scale production, products are continuously updated, and only a unified development of the brand's visual image of the product can build a strong awareness of the brand and its different products. Therefore, the individualization of packaging design is not simply to represent a single commodity, but more is to require a unified visual image that embodies the diversity of products under the same brand, and specifically shows the following aspects.

2.1 Using the concept of VI in the modeling of products (containers) to enhance the brand association. Containers are the supports of goods, and they are also the visual images of goods. The shape and structure of the product (container) can help consumers build awareness and continue the brand's image and sense of unity.

For example, Coca-Cola's bottle shape has now become part of its brand equity, not only enables consumers to establish brand recognition, but also quickly enhance the brand's association function, resulting in a huge marketing effect. In the world, as long as there is someone there, someone knows that such a bottle is. Coca-Cola, because the shape of the Coca-Cola bottle is particularly easy to identify. The way to identify is the modeling of stylized elements, not just trademarks. A bottle became a unique identification symbol and actually played the role of a trademark. Coca-Cola bottles are therefore also known. The most famous bottle in the world. In the same way, the unique shape design of Apple Computer, for example, complements the unique perceptual professional computer traits of its products. The unique design of the World Beer Bottle can attract people’s attention and recognition and achieve the goal of rapidly increasing marketing volume. .

It can be seen that, as visual symbols, product (container) modeling is also an important source of global brand recognition. The shape is different from the brand name. Relatively speaking, because it can arouse people's association with a particular brand in certain aspects, it is easier to eliminate the differences between cultures. Here must pay attention to such a problem: Modeling is not only the performance of product personality, but also should reflect the product's unique quality pursuit, and the continuity of the modeling structure is an important means of continuing the brand's visual identity, which is also the use of VI concepts. For the concrete manifestation of the visual form.

This kind of personalized packaging and graphic colors are the same as those of products (containers). To maintain consistency in the continuous renewal of the same brand products, we must follow the principles of using the VI concept to ensure that the brand is visually The sense of unity creates a visual brand awareness and avoids losing the sense of unity in the image due to the diversity of new products, leading to the breakdown of consumer cognition chains.

Such as Coca-Cola, the reason why the beverage can be known to everyone, its wonderful place is that the product packaging design reflects the brand's cultural value, and this principle in the trademark color, text recognition has always been consistent, with strict The image constitutes management. The “fresh and dynamic product culture value” expressed by the packaging design is exactly the fundamental reason why Coca-Cola’s brand image has spanned a century and has gone through generations of people’s long years without being bored.

In addition to the use of red and white color In addition, there is also a blue, warm and comfortable, visual pleasing, this image symbol is implemented in all its products from the surface, and it is carried out in different degrees in the promotion of goods, all of which convey to people that “Pepsi is unique Innovative, positive life brand personality.

China's Sunshen Group, which first introduced the concept of corporate image in China, succeeded in using the VI visual concept to form a brand image in product packaging design.

The quality and popularity have become a successful model for the introduction of cI management concepts by Chinese companies, which were popular stories in the corporate world and the design community at that time.The packaging design covers a wide range of goods, but its packaging has always given people a This sense of unity has achieved good market recognition.
