Describe the brief from the client

Kiss FM is the most important radio specialised in classic rock in Brazil. It has a loyal audience and a repertoire based solely on the biggest rock classics of all time. When the radio came to us, it needed a more audacious visual platform in harmony with the boldness of its rock 'n' roll programming.



Describe the challenges and key objectives

The biggest challenge was to make Kiss FM stand out as the only ‘rocker’ option among a vast majority of radios essentially pop; to thereby gain new listeners.



Describe how you arrived at the final design

To differentiate Kiss FM from the pop radio stations, a new visual identity was created, one entirely based on illustrations and 3D modelling. Black and white are the predominant colours, with little variations in the mid-tones and the presence of some realistic textures. The characters and elements don't respect a logical proportion between them, reinforcing the fantasy aspect of the scenarios. The illustrations were used on posters, ads, billboards and gigantography. They show a big pop universe and invite the public to find a classic-rock character. The rock star is always next to the Kiss FM logo.



Give some indication of how successful the outcome was in the market

With the new visual identity, the number of listeners of Kiss FM increased by 17%, and the image of the radio got more associated with the great legends of the classic-rock world.
