Kosh! Oats by BLOK

Home > Winners > #56088




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Kosh!

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Oats

INSPIRATION:
For the package design we drew inspiration from Indian street typography & Indian vintage industrial, wholesale packaging and reimagined it in a contemporary context, to establish a sense of grass-root familiarity & dependability towards an unfamiliar product for the Indian consumer. By referencing industrial labels, seals & wholesale packaging materials, and modernising it we aimed to create a connection to the collective Indian consciousness of local quality & a sense of belonging.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Kosh! is a newly launched Indian oats brand by Future Consumer that aims to establish itself as India's 3rd staple grain after rice & wheat. As oats is relatively unfamiliar in India, we focused on the packaging communicating dependability & transparency, by flipping conventional food packaging formats & bringing helpful nutritional information often lost in the fine print of the back-of-pack to the forefront.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
Using the diverse product formats from Kosh! such as Oats Atta (flour), Broken Oats, Wheat+Oats Atta (flour) & Instant Oats, consumers can incorporate Kosh! into their everyday meals be it porridges, pancakes and various other lunch & dinner dishes that require grain. The brand encourages the end user to use one's creativity & imagination to experiment with their everyday dishes using the range of oat products.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The project was based in Mumbai, India and started in January 2016 and was completed in August 2016.

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:

TAGS:

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The studio conducted exploratory research for the project. The objective was to gain insight on consumer behaviour in India towards a relatively unfamiliar food grain such as oats. A qualitative methodology was adopted, with data collection through a series of store visits to large retail outlets that contain a wide range of oats brands. This was done to better understand consumer behaviour in India with relation to oats. A critical insight observed was that with rising fitness awareness among consumers, shoppers often focus on ingredient lists and health information at the back of the packaging, rather than on the front label communication.

CHALLENGE:
Given the low consumption of oats in India and rising fitness awareness, the brand aims to establish itself as India's 3rd staple grain after rice & wheat. The challenge was to develop a brand identity and package design that could spark an instant connect with the Indian consumer for a relatively unfamiliar product and incite excitement to experiment with recipes using oats.
