Branding for Russian -Israeli bakery
BLYN celebrates the convergence of Russian and Israeli cultures in the heart of Tel Aviv. Inspired by the double meaning of the Russian word- blin which stands for a single pancake and a friendly alternative for f***.
The brand merges traditional Russian recipes with the diverse influences of Israeli cuisine and day to day life. The goal was to create a fun and refreshing look that references the local and lingual nuances.
Bouncing between striking imagery and vibrant storytelling, this brand is all about making a buzz, sense of belonging and celebration of the culture fusion.
