Cold Line is an Italian company, headquartered in the northeast of the country, that designs and manufactures professional refrigeration appliances in stainless steel (refrigerated counters and cabinets, blast chillers/freezers, pizza counters) for the catering, pastry, ice cream and pizza industries. The company is dedicated to high-quality construction and product reliability, the wide range of available products, innovative technology research and timeliness of service. The suggested market prices are competitive, though not the lowest. Cold Line does not participate in trade fairs nor does it advertise its products through mass media outlets. Products are distributed via specialized retailers who handle both product installation and technical support.
这是什么？
在这一步中，您将看到要求您提供解决方案的品牌 Builder 相关信息。他会自我介绍 (当然是作为品牌 :) 您对品牌的了解越深入，您的作品被接受的可能性越大。
重要事项：可能出于保密原因，品牌 Builder 不愿透露自己的身份。此类 Brief 将以匿名方式发布。这种情况下，品牌 Builder 想介绍多少，就介绍多少。
这里有两个例子
如果愿意透露其身份（可见）：
“NMN -No More Nicotine- 是一个承诺能抵消吸烟对皮肤造成的损害的品牌。NMN 通过药房销售，价格定位处于中高档；该品牌主要通过专业人士推荐，没有大量的广告宣传。”
如果品牌不希望透露其身份（匿名）：
“能抵消吸烟对皮肤造成的损害的品牌。其产品通过药房销售，价格定位处于中高档；他们主要通过专业人士推荐，没有大量的广告宣传。”
简而言之：谁是您的客户 (无论是可见还是“匿名” :)
Creators are asked to produce the graphics for 3 stickers for 3 product categories:
1 for "refrigerated cabinets" (all.to disegno armadio.pdf + foto armadio.pdf)
1 for "refrigerated counters" (all.to disegno tavolo.pdf + foto tavolo.pdf)
1 for "blast chillers/freezers" (all.to disegno abbattitore.pdf + foto abbattitore.pdf)
The stickers must include the Cold Line logo. The logo does not need to have the exact company colors; other colors may be proposed as long as they are in line with the original ones. The stickers will be made of polyester or polycarbonate and will be applied to stainless steel panels next to the digital thermostat. The objectives are:
1. To highlight the brand, making it immediately visible and recognizable.
2. To make the appliances more aesthetically pleasing with modern, minimalist graphics and colors suitable for a professional kitchen that undergoes frequent cleaning.
3. To convey a sense of trust, sturdiness, professionalism and superior technology to the user.
4. To hide welding marks of screws at the sides of the digital thermostat, which are generated during production. The minimum dimensions indicated below already take this objective into account.
!!!Update as of 7 March!!!
Indications for Creators:
The stickers must have a professional look – modern in terms of lines, form and color.
Review the links to our competitors, provided in the Brief, in order to avoid any identical or equivalent solutions.
Feel free to modify the dimensions and the shape of the sticker. Moreover, for the refrigeration cabinet we accept a simple horizontal solution, as wide as the cabinet itself.
You can also slightly modify the size of the sticker dedicated to the freezer. The shape of the sticker can be modified as well BUT use simple and professionally looking graphical elements.
The Brand is the only element to be highlighted.
We remind you that the printing technique is silkscreen printing, on polycarbonate and polyester – please consider the appropriate technical implications.
!!!The end of Update
这是什么？
这是品牌 Builder 要求您完成的任务。如果您不了解，那您就彻底没戏了。
例子
“我们想让 Creator 设计一个印刷品广告宣传来增加品牌知名度。将在今春投放到全国媒体杂志上。”
简而言之，这是客户的目标，因此也是您的目标！
In Europe: Chefs, Pastry Chefs, Bakers (and their staff) who use the products professionally.
The user expects the product to be reliable, sturdy, long-lasting, energetically economical and easy to use.
这是什么？
品牌 Builder 希望您让他们高兴，并说服他们想到、感觉到或使用您的创作做某些事的人。通常您会读到他们的年龄、性别、社会阶层和行为。您在创作过程始终应把这些信息牢记在心，因为目标受众才是最终接受您作品的人。
例子
“想要戒烟但无法做到的女子。通常是关注自己外表、注意健康的成年人。他们对于自己吸烟感到愧疚，因为他们知道吸烟有害。他们阅读相关书籍。这对他们来说是一个真正的问题，就像：“我的脑袋要某样东西，但我的身体却不听使唤”。他们和我的品牌无关，他们只是在等待值得信赖的“援助之手。”
简而言之：把握他们的想法！
Application of the new stickers should instill the following sensations in the onlooker/user/buyer:
- Aesthetic satisfaction;
- Professionalism and refined technology;
- Ease of use;
- Dependability, reliability and sturdiness.
这是什么？
品牌 Builder 想要目标受众从您的创作中，思考 / 感觉 / 有所行动的东西。
以下是一些具体示例：
∞ 人们会想到 / 感觉到的一些事：
- 出现了一个新的品牌（或产品或创意或...）
- 这个品牌比其它的或以前的更好
- 这个品牌值得多花点钱
∞ 人们会做的一些事：
- 开始购买该品牌的产品
- 更经常购买该品牌的产品
- 在零售店里库存更多该品牌的产品
上面这些例子非常具体，而通常 Brief 提案是感性的。那样更好，因为可以带来灵感！
例子
“我们想要鼓励吸烟者使用 NMN，将对他们健康的影响降至最低，让他们继续尝试戒烟（尤其如果他们已经尝试过，但是未成功）。”
简而言之：进入他们的脑袋！
The products we currently offer are carefully and precisely constructed and, in most cases, completely satisfy the user. They are, however, lacking with regard to image as they are rather visually similar to products offered by our competitors. We expect that development of nice, modern, professional graphics will affirm the company's values for the user, increasing the pleasure of using our appliances.
这是什么？
这是实现目标的关键；是支持提案，使其可信的内容。通常是理性的陈述。
例子
“您吸的每一根烟都对您的外表造成损害。最近的一项研究选取了多对一模一样的双胞胎，其中一个吸了一辈子烟，另一个则从未吸过烟。吸烟者的皮肤比不吸烟者的薄四分之一，有些差别甚至多达40%。NMN 含有能阻止皮肤变薄的抗氧化剂，抵消了尼古丁对皮肤的影响。”
简而言之：需要理由吗？就在这里！
Reliability, innovation, professionalism, sturdiness.
这是什么？
这是品牌的个性。对...是个性！
将品牌视为一个人，有自己的个性。了解“客户”的个性对于完成度身定制的工作来说至关重要。所以，请仔细阅读所列的形容词...
例子
“科学、值得信赖、注重结果，实现您目标的‘良师益友’。”
简而言之：将其想象成一个活生生的人物！
The creative work will accompany the product when placed for professional use in restaurant kitchens, pastry and bake shops, pizzerias, ice cream shops, cooking schools and retailer showrooms. The graphics may be used for advertisements in trade magazines.
这是什么？
列出了目标受众将能够看见您创作成果的地方（或媒介或事物）。这一步中，有时品牌还会告知您该制作的预计投资金额。此信息有助于您决定项目的规模大小。 :)
例子
“此广告活动将于 2009 年春季投放于侧重于生活方式和健康的新西兰妇女杂志上。我们计划投资 500000 美元，可以购买大约 100 张单页。”
简而言之：考虑媒介！
The winner will be asked to provide final artwork for each of the product types. The stickers will be of various sizes according to the product category, but they must have consistent graphics between them.
It is expected that a new digital control (not the one shown in the brochures), with display and buttons flush with the panel, will be used. (Control is on the rear panel)
The project must take into account that the stickers will be made of polyester using silkscreen printing. Keep in mind that shades of color are not technically feasible in the printing phase.
The stickers must be made according to the maximum size indicated for each product category:
Cabinets: L=140 mm H=180 mm (all.to disegno armadio.pdf + foto armadio.pdf)
Counters: L=250 mm H=70 mm (all.to disegno tavolo.pdf + foto tavolo.pdf)
Blast chillers: L=138 mm H=400 mm (all.to disegno abbattitore.pdf + foto abbattitore.pdf)
Different dimensions are accepted provided they are smaller than the maximum dimensions.
JPG and PDF files are accepted for presentation. The winner will be asked to provide the final artwork in AI and CDR files.
