Vezir Branding and Packaging

This work, prepared for Vezir Pasta, is a comprehensive corporate identity and packaging design project aiming to position the brand in a luxury and high-quality segment. Inspired by the nobility and prestige represented by the title “Vezir” (Vizier), the brand identity utilizes burgundy to reflect a pioneering spirit and gold to emphasize premium quality. Within the scope of the project, innovative packaging solutions were developed, including standard cylindrical boxes, portion-sized packets, microwave-compatible noodle boxes, and functional metal camping tins designed for nature enthusiasts.

What is Vezir?

Vezir Pasta is presented as a luxury brand that prioritizes customer needs, product quality, and variety.

In Turkish, the word “Vezir” (Vizier) refers to “a person in the Ottoman Empire who held the title of pasha and undertook high-level duties such as viziership or governorship.” Additionally, in chess, “Vezir” is the term used for the second most powerful piece, which follows the king and is known as the “Queen” in English.

Vezir Pasta is a brand operating in the pasta industry that stands out with its user-friendly packaging and product diversity. To evoke the brand’s pioneering spirit and self-confidence, burgundy was chosen, while gold was used to emphasize premium quality.

Fitting for the sector, a wheat stalk was selected as the representative symbol of the brand, with one stalk designed to be more prominent than the others.
