I was responsible for creating two versions of a range of chocolate boxes for the company's showcase collection: the signature collection.
I created 4 cases and their variations for chocolate bars sold by the company and I also offered color variations with silver and gold gilding for the collection of plain boxes.
Collection 2024
The signature collection renewed every year is the company's showcase collection. It includes 10 models of boxes available in different versions.
I have proposed several versions for this collection but only two will be selected.
The first model is not a packaging intended only to contain chocolate and to be thrown away, but above all a design object that can be reused as a decoration or other. This model is inspired by interior architecture and furniture design by the recall of steel with silver gilding, the world of chocolate with the trace of modernized brushed chocolate. The second box is based on minimalism: in graphics but also in the creation process. It is inspired by the bitmap pattern of old phone screens, stylized cabosses with a gourmet chestnut.
For the first box model, I used my inspirations supported by trend notebooks. I chose an off-white drawing towards beige/pink that is purified while remaining noble and warm. I used a bright orange to make the box more greedy and more in line with trends. The silver gilding, inspired by steel, makes it possible to add a play of light that enriches the dynamics of the packaging.
For the second model, I wanted to use Craft cardboard, a material that is increasingly popular thanks to its ecological and raw aspect, which was my basis of work.
In order to preserve the material, I thought about the color of the pods according to the different gilding films offered by the company, in order to avoid the company having to pass the cardboard on a printing machine, which would have been expensive in terms of time, labor and that would have "dirty" the raw material.

Declination of 4 models of chocolate bars sold in the year 2023-2024:
- A model inspired by cocoa pods, with a simplified line design, in partial cut.
- Two identical minimalist models on different supports. They have been designed for use in landscape format and not portrait like classic tablets.
- A declination on a beige background with a point pattern revealing the composition of the tablet in a pixelated image.
For the first model, the illustration is distributed on the surface of the box, with an area for the customer's claw and for the taste of the tablet. The different colors are company-specific colors, resulting from new models created by Thibault-Bergeron.
For the second model, I used a Bold Sans Serif typo so that it is visible from afar. The oblique headband joins the label on the back. The third model was designed inspired by my third proposal for the Prestige collection: pixelation. So I distributed points of different sizes showing an image of the taste of the tablet reworked graphically in pixelation. The beige background linked to English green typography gives a Elegant character and refined in the cases.
