Context
True Refrigeration is an American commercial refrigeration brand whose communication focused primarily on technical performance. For the European market, the brand needed a visual direction with a stronger connection to food culture.
Challenge
Translate an established, technically focused American brand into a design system suited to a European food-service audience.
Approach The creative direction repositioned refrigeration as part of the culinary experience rather than simply a technical utility. I developed a visual system that balanced robustness with refinement, using material references, colour, typography and food imagery to connect product performance with freshness, quality and craftsmanship across applications.
Created at Publicis LMA for True Refrigeration.
Outcome
A refined identity that strengthens the brand’s relevance within the European market.
The visual system aligns product perception with culinary expectations, positioning refrigeration as an active contributor to food quality and professional standards.
Peak Smart
Turning an invisible energy challenge into a clear, coherent public experience.
