Designing a Pharmacy Brand for a Healthier Life

Ten years after the deregulation, the Swedish pharmacy market is highly competitive but not very differentiated. Many brands fight to be the most trustworthy and most consumer oriented alternative. In this setting, how do you create a distinct brand consumer actually like and wants to be loyal to? Emelie Friis at Kronans Apotek early on recognized the value in investing in branding and design, using the private table offering as a brand-unique asset. In the same way, a new brand identity was developed together with IW and implemented across 328 pharmacies. Listen to the challenges and thoughts behind the work from Emelie and Marie. It will be a happy-pill!

Five Creative Mindsets to Avoid Bland Design!

We all know great and powerful design when we see it. Powerful design evokes emotions – you feel happy, strong, curious, inspired... Powerful design creates movement – a reaction and action. But let’s be honest. Powerful design - or meaningful design as we would like to call it - is not as frequent as we want it to be. How come? Is it because of lack of time? Or energy? No clear purpose or creative height? Organizational challenges or budget restrictions? In this session, we’ll share five creative mindsets for meaningful design, which jobs to be done and how to do it.
