Lerio Chocolate

THE BRIEF

With the help of another design team, the Agusan-based cacao farm and cafe LERIO CHOCOLATE aimed to refresh their brand to give it a contemporary look. This required revisiting key elements in the design and give them an updated look. A new collection of merch will help continue the brand story.

Tasked to translate the key visuals provided into practical packaging and merchandise design, STUDIO HIBANG is able to reiterate the brand’s heritage, community, and essence through functional design.

Lerio Chocolate: premium specialty chocolates made from single-estate grown cacao from Rosario, Agusan del Sur, Philippines.

THE OUTPUT: MERCHANDISE DESIGN

A three-piece collection–a canvas bag, a ceramic mug, and a T-shirt–was identified by the brand for this project.  With the help of folksy, key visuals, translated into stamps, soft silhouettes and imagery they are utilized as embellishments to echo the brand’s natural, youthful vibe.
