Challenge
The client needed to create a new supplement brand capable of standing out in a market dominated by visually similar products and established Amazon competitors.
The project started without an existing name, identity or visual direction.
Approach
RESEARCH
The project began with an analysis of the German supplement market and competing products on Amazon. The research focused on visual patterns, positioning, packaging conventions and opportunities for differentiation.
Research areas: Amazon competitor analysis · Category visual codes · Naming patterns · Packaging and communication · Market differentiation opportunities
STRATEGY
The opportunity was to build a wellness brand that felt natural and trustworthy without appearing overly pharmaceutical or generic.
Brand attributes: Modern · Supportive · Natural · Clear · Aspirational
NAMING
The name POWERLY combines the ideas of personal strength, energy and everyday support. It positions the brand as an approachable partner in maintaining health and wellbeing.
BRAND IDEA — SUPPORT YOUR BODY
The creative concept is built around the idea of gentle, continuous support. Natural forms and soft visual elements are combined with precise typography and a structured product system.
VISUAL IDENTITY
The leaf symbol represents natural support, balance and growth. Its shape is integrated into the wordmark, creating a recognisable detail that can also function independently.
PRODUCT ARCHITECTURE
A flexible identity system was created for multiple product categories, including POWERLY Light, POWERLY Bio and POWERLY Pro. Each direction retains the master brand while allowing future products to develop their own visual characteristics.
APPLICATIONS
The identity was extended across supplement packaging, product labels, shakers, retail catalogues, wholesale order boxes, shopping bags, employee identification, merchandise and promotional materials.
AI ART DIRECTION
AI-assisted product and lifestyle imagery was created using Midjourney and Nano Banana to establish the visual atmosphere of the brand. Creative direction covered concepts, prompt development, composition, lighting, colour consistency, refinement and final image selection.
Tools — Midjourney · Nano Banana
Outcome
The result is a cohesive and scalable brand system designed to differentiate POWERLY within the supplement category and support its expansion across products, retail and B2B communication.
Contribution
Complete brand development across market and competitor research, naming, positioning, creative concept, logo design, visual identity, product architecture, brand applications and AI art direction.
