auge design completes leibniz brand refresh

 

Design agency Auge was commissioned by German food manufacturer Balshen to complete the rebranding of Leibniz, the iconic biscuit known for its teeth-shaped design and imprinted ‘Leibniz Butterkeks’ typeface. Drawing from the biscuit’s original look, the refresh introduces a new packaging, typography, and logo, creating a fresh visual identity that engages warmly with young families while reminding consumers of the brand’s legacy.

‘freshly baked’ typeface and signature Leibniz yellow

 

Auge Design has preserved the original Leibniz biscuit shape with its characteristic 52 teeth that dates back to 1891. At first sight, the logo appears to be unaltered as well. ‘We decided to keep the original logo rounded style and ‘baked’ it exactly the way biscuits are,’ Auge Design explains. Further inspection reveals the design studio’s delicate smooth inktraps, which resemble the way dough swells and sets as it emerges from the oven. The rounded edges and swollen dough look are also incorporated into the new logo and the bespoke typeface, titled Butterkeks Display.

 

Auge has created an architecture comprised of six distinct ranges in which the biscuits are the ultimate hero, capable of carrying all necessary information. The warm character of the new brand identity is underlined by preserving the iconic Leibniz yellow and improving the sunflower tone across the new packaging. ‘The distinctive Leibniz yellow increases the wall impact on shelf,’ the design studio notes. The sides of the packaging feature a huge logo that embrace the flavor, while a natural color palette reminds consumers of ‘the goodness of the products’. What’s more, macro photography of the biscuits dominates the new packaging, in order to massively enhance every single detail of the biscuits’ texture and make the flavor recognizable at first glance.
