Weirdos Cereal

The Weirdos cereal rebrand is a creative mock-up aimed at reimagining the beloved Cheros brand with a fresh, quirky twist. The goal was to modernize the look of a traditional, nostalgic cereal while incorporating elements of fun, inclusivity, and health-consciousness, all while keeping the core essence of the original product. This conceptual rebrand explored how bold design choices and a fun, offbeat identity could reposition Cheros as a cereal that appeals to a wide range of audiences, from children to health-conscious adults.

Designing

The design for Weirdos embraces eccentricity and self-expression. The packaging is full of vibrant, attention-grabbing colors like neon green, electric blue, and hot pink, with quirky illustrations of unique characters. These characters, each with a different style and background, represent the concept of embracing "weirdness" as a positive, empowering trait. The playful and somewhat chaotic design language gives off a sense of adventure and individuality, suggesting that there’s no "one way" to enjoy breakfast.

In terms of typography, the bold, graffiti-inspired fonts paired with clean sans-serif text give the packaging a contemporary, youthful feel. The playful yet minimalistic visual elements were designed to break away from the overly commercial designs of typical cereals.

Problems

The original Cherios branding was dated, often associated with overly sugary products that no longer aligned with current health trends. It also lacked a strong identity that could resonate with today’s diverse, individuality-driven consumer base. The challenge was to reimagine the brand in a way that would break away from its sugar-heavy past while still retaining the nostalgic connection fans had with it.
