Prior to the 2017 Solar Eclipse, W+K teamed up with Chiquita to announce the once-in-a-lifetime event of Chiquita creating a banana shaped sun as the moon moved between the earth and the sun. The moment was celebrated with a series of activations, including a website, thebananasun.com, serving as the hub for all things banana-sun related, a series of web films, a Chiquita chat bot on facebook messenger, a big banana OOH installation near the flatiron building in NYC, and banana shaped eclipse viewing glasses.

Yoplait sought the help of the design department at W+K in 2016 to help give the brand a fresh look, tone and digital presence. I was tasked with designing and art directing new Brand Guidelines and a complete yoplait.com redesign. Myself and a small team developed a design language and experience that felt fun, flexible and clear.
The use of Herb Lubalin's Avant Garde Gothic as the primary typeface was inspired by the Yoplait logo itself, which has changed little from its original 1965 version, and embodies the simplicity and playfulness that the brand was seeking.
