ДЯКУЮ / GRACIAS

IDENTITY · PACKAGING  ·  2020

A bakery whose name means “thank you” in Ukrainian. The word you say when you're handed your bread, turned into a brand.

01The name

“Dyakuyu” is the word said at the exact moment of purchase — when you're handed bread still warm. Naming the bakery after it turns every sale into a small ritual: the customer reads the name and says it without meaning to.

02The idea of the mark

The logo works by association, exactly as the brandbook puts it: grains that are at the same time little loaves of bread, and together they form a wheat ear. Three things in one drawing — the field, the oven and the harvest — without literally drawing any of them. It all sits inside a superellipse: of all geometric shapes, the most organic one there is, the one that looks most like something baked.

Grains + loaf + wheat ear — the mark's formula, straight from the brandbook

03The system

Warm cream as the ground, coral for the mark, and the grain pattern growing across any surface: bags, boxes, cups, the bread stand. Nothing shouts — a bakery doesn't need to shout, it needs to smell good and look honest.

04On the street

The delivery van wears the pattern like a moving picnic cloth. It's our favourite piece: a “thank you” driving through the city every morning with the bread still warm.
