MOKAI FULL REBRAND

01 | CASE STUDY
SLIDE TO SEE MOKAI'S LABEL TRANSFORMATION

The Mokai rebrand unifies brand identity, packaging, website, and product messaging into a polished, engaging experience designed for dog owners.
Mokai is a four-product line of dog supplement chews from a wellness company focused on natural, science-backed pet nutrition. Each formula supports a different aspect of canine health—joint care, skin and coat health, gut health, and stress relief—while maintaining a unified, approachable brand identity.
As the sole designer, I led the brand refresh from strategy to launch, shaping the visual identity, packaging, website, and product storytelling into a cohesive, modern experience for dog owners while collaborating with stakeholders throughout.

CRAFTING
THE MOKAI REBRAND

Brand Audit & Discovery
STEP 1
I began by analyzing Mokai’s existing brand identity and packaging to identify strengths worth keeping and areas for improvement.
-
Reviewed the previous packaging system, which used cluttered layouts, inconsistent typography, and competing colors.
-
Conducted a visual audit of competitors in the pet wellness space to pinpoint opportunities for differentiation. Identified key elements to retain (brand name recognition, product benefit clarity) while establishing a plan for simplification, consistency, and a modernized visual direction.

I built a style guide that unified the brand’s look and feel across packaging, digital, and marketing touchpoints.
-
Defined a primary typeface system for consistency across packaging and web.
-
Established a color-coding system to differentiate each product while maintaining overall brand harmony:
Joint Restore (purple) hip and joint support
