Pi makes freeze-dried treats for dogs and cats. In 2023 we drew its mark — three bars, two quarter-circles and a dot on one grid — and a first round of pouches built on photographs of pets. Coming back to it in 2026, we kept the mark and its orange, cobalt and pink exactly, replaced the photographs with a dog and a cat drawn from the mark’s own shapes, and gave the three recipes one shared layout.

01The mark

Three bars, two arcs
and a dot.

The P’s stem breaks in two, its bowl splits into two quarter-circles, and the i is a bar and a dot. Every stroke sits on one grid — 208 wide, 88 apart, five bands each way. Simple enough to hold at icon size; solid enough to stand in any of the three colours.

02Colour

One recipe,
one colour.

Orange is chicken, cobalt is fish, pink is rabbit. From a few steps down the aisle the colour reads first and the name second. All three come from the 2023 identity; none of them changed.

03The dog and the cat

Drawn with the mark’s
own shapes.

The first pouches used photographs of pets, a different one on each, and side by side they didn’t look related. This time the dog and the cat are built from the mark’s bars, quarter-circles and dots. On the pack they change colour with the recipe; off it, they work as stickers.

GOOD COMPANY.

04The pack

One layout,
three recipes.

Five things, in the same place on every pouch: the mark, the descriptor, the recipe, the dog and cat, and the footer band. The recipe name is the biggest and boldest thing on the pack, legible from three steps away; the pets take each recipe’s second colour; a cream band lines the three up as one row.

05Cards

Off the shelf,
still Pi.

The 2023 files include a business-card draft. We turned it into a pair of brand cards: a cobalt face with only the mark, a pink face given to the dog and the cat. Tucked into an order or handed over at a trade show, it’s the same family.

Mark and first packaging proposal: 2023. Packaging refinement, dog-and-cat graphics, stickers and cards: a 2026 portfolio refinement, not production packaging. The mark on this page is redrawn as vector from the 2023 artwork on its own geometry and overlays the original to 99.9%. Packs, stickers and cards are typeset layouts and carry no nutrition or health claims. Product photographs supplied by the client. The three pouches on a plinth are an AI-assisted visualisation.
