Voron’s team created a comprehensive system that incorporates the Brand Vision Architecture, Design Principles and Identity Standards as the are essential to maintaining the timeless and relevant Coca-Cola Brand. Everything created for the Brand ensues from them.

This was Coke’s first multi-dimensional brand system. It was launched in 2010 and remains the foundation for Coke design, even today in 2019.

At the basis of the 3D brand design system are Industrial Design Principles and subsequent Form Elements :

1. Bold Simplicity

Expressed through consistent use of modular components and common design elements. A strategy for:
• Simplifying and unifying equipment.
• Thoughtfully eliminating elements that do not contribute to function.

2. Real Authenticity

Expressed through:
• Materials that look and feel genuine, real, uncontrived.
• Design that is driven by meeting needs.
• Design that is modern, yet links back to the Brand heritage.

3. The Power of Red

Always used – as either a primary color or an accent – to:
• Ensure consistency across all executions.

4. Familiar Yet Surprising

• Its expression makes the usage experience fresh yet consistent across all equipment.

• By changing its emphasis across different locations or occasions, we elevate that special moment of personal delight/sensory amazement for users.

These are examples of the visual identity system (VIS) brand elements and how they are executed across various mediums and dimesnions from 2D packaging graphics to 3D equipment form design to 4D digital interactive designs.

While Voron was head of design for Coca-Cola North America he leveraged the multi-dimensional brand design system to ensure that the hundreds of millions of branded multi-sensory design impressions and experiences that his team was creating for the North American market was on strategy from both a brand design and usability perspective. It also helped the many partners and manufactures of Coca-Cola to deliver consistent products and experiences.
