BRIEF


Summary

New graphic design contest on desall.com: Venchi and Desall invite you to design the Easter egg wraps of the 2023 Easter collection.


Company description

With more than 140 years of history, today Venchi has earned international recognition: with more than 350 chocolate recipes and 90 gelato flavours, it is found in more than 70 countries in key cities like London, Hong Kong, Dubai and New York with the biggest chocolate waterfall of all time. On this journey towards international expansion, Venchi recently landed in Taiwan, Jakarta, Shanghai and Tokyo in the name of beauty, joy and conviviality, turning “Made in Italy” into “Experienced like in Italy” with over 145 boutiques opened worldwide!


What we are looking for

The brief is available in the following languages:
- Italian
- English

Download the Material files

Venchi invites you to design a number of Easter egg wrap collections for the 2023 catalogue. The collections should be based on 5 themes. In order to be eligible for all 5 awards, designers should submit at least one collection for each theme. Each collection should be submitted as an individual entry.

Example images for older collections are available within the material files, downloadable from the contest page.


Guidelines

For the correct realisation of your proposals, please take into consideration the following guidelines:
• Folds of the wrapping: the folds that characterize the wrapping on the assembled product could compromise the legibility of the graphics. Accordingly, designers should create a suitably sized pattern whose elements are not too large. Read the “Measures” paragraph for more information on the topic. 
• The company logo should be integrated in the graphics or on a side band. Find the logo within the material files downloadable from the contest page. 
• The requested colour variations for each collection may consist in a change of the background color, the pattern colour, or both.
• Offensive graphics (rude words and images, religious symbols, etc.) and copyrighted materials (stock graphics, other types of licences, etc.) will NOT be accepted.

1. Modern floral collection
Pattern element: floral pattern featuring a modern and simple style and bright colours.
Colour variation: 4
• Milk chocolate
• Dark chocolate
• Extra-dark chocolate
• White chocolate

2. Classic floral collection
Pattern element: floral pattern featuring a more classic, less digital, “hand-drawn” style  and muted colours. 
Colour variation: 4
• Milk chocolate
• Dark chocolate
• Extra-dark chocolate
• White chocolate

3. Kids collection
Pattern element: abstract/figurative pattern of your choice, dedicated to children aged 3 to 8.  Colours and patterns should clearly indicate whether the product is for little girls or little boys.

Printing & Colours
The requested graphics will be reproduced using flexographic printing. Four-colour (CMYK) and/or Pantone colours can be used. 
Pantone colours should be used for large colour fields or in case of specific colours whose brilliancy, for example, can’t be colour matched in four-colour. If using Pantone printing, only 8 hues will be available, including white as a base colour.  

Print media
The Easter egg wraps can be printed on transparent recycled polypropylene, 32 micron thick.

Measures
Design the requested graphics on a 105x105 cm sheet. 
Print cylinders of various sizes will be used and as such the requested graphics should be designed for continuous feed printing. The pattern should be designed so that it can be repeated infinitely both horizontally and vertically. 
940x720px is the suggested format to upload your project on the platform.

The standard format of the finished individual wrap is: 105x105 cm. The executive files will need to be created in vector format.

Deliverables
Upload all images in order to present your projects in the best possible way. The images in the gallery (maximum 5) must have a proportion of 4:3. Allowed file formats: .jpg, .gif o .png; colours: RGB; max file size: 1MB. When submitting your proposal, utilize the dedicated field to upload a .zip folder with vector files and high resolution images. Allowed formats: .ai, .eps, .pdf, .jpg e .png.
