Brief
rebrand Wally's communication – a Ferretti Group brand.
Carbon fiber
Nowadays, everything from bicycle frames to champagne bottles is made of carbon fiber.
In the early 1990s, its carbon composite hull and full carbon mast were a total revolution in the nautical world.
This is why the carbon fiber has to continue to be the protagonist
Wally performance and carbon fiber are inseparable
Concept
The Other Side of the Wind is a line that must help to position Wally as a premium
boatbuilder with a proven record of innovation.
Our presumption is that the company’s potential customers are already somehow
familiar with Wally, which gives us the latitude to use language that insinuates,
rather than “spells out,” the promise of the brand.
Additionally, the use of elevated language reinforces the premium nature of the
product, while acknowledging the intelligence of the consumer.
“The Other Side of the Wind” speaks to the spirit of innovation that drives the Wally brand
forward.
Whether its sailing yachts or powered tenders, the constant quest for improved performance forms the company’s unerring essence.
Wally’s DNA is to cross into the other side of the main stream. Into the enchanted seas,
charting for a new destination in boating. Either breaking the rules for improving technical
design revolution or change the status quo of nautical engeneering.
The Other Side of the Wind is a state of mind. A poetically representation of yachting innovation combining cutting-edge technology with advanced design experience, constantly
looking at ways of improving the on the water enjoyment, comfort and performance.
Graphics, wordings and visuals together must always navigate within the other side,
from the common place.
Wally Communication Engineering in its modern complexity, should be able to live up to
the promises of the Brand, leading the way to total innovations particularly in the world
of nautical marketing.
