&Walsh rebrands food app jow, championing the everyday pleasures of food

&Walsh created the new brand, imagery and custom type for Jow, a personal grocery shopper at your fingertips. Jow simplifies your day-to-day so you can take back time for yourself and your loved ones.

They came to &Walsh to explore a rebrand as they moved into the US market (from France). In the rebrand, the goal was to transition Jow from a technology app to a service that can improve your everyday life. “We set out to capture the “Joie de Jow”, the exuberant enjoyment of life.”

The headline type is a custom modified font with playful ligatures. We created an alternate option of the font with squiggles for more expressive and heartfelt moments.

Key Brand Elements described by &Walsh

  • Custom Typeface: The headline type is a custom modified font with playful ligatures. We created an alternate option of the font with squiggles for more expressive and heartfelt moments.
  • Color Palette: We retained the JOW orange but supported it with a palette that is both bright and warm. The color choices were inspired by colors that frequent home kitchens.
  • Graphic Elements: Imperfect graphic elements (uneven circles and lines) celebrate Jow’s simple outlook on cooking: “We don’t do perfect, we do possible”
  • Patterns: Inspired by classic kitchen tablecloths, we created a library of woven patterns that can be used as backgrounds, wallpaper, and frames for photography.
