Burger King Rebrand

Burger King Rebrand

For Burger King’s first global rebrand in more than two decades, we set out to make the brand feel more real, crave-able and tasty.

To celebrate Burger King’s big leap forward, we introduced a photography style that uses big, dramatic close-ups to get people to crave the food and to communicate its freshness, flame-grilling perfection and above all, taste. A playful illustration style allows the brand to tell memorable stories like never before.

An irreverently bold typeface, Flame Sans evokes the natural, organic shapes of food. Warmer colors bring vibrant, fresh ingredients and the brand’s trademark flame-grilling method to life in packaging, crew uniforms, and digital experiences.

Your way. Way better.
