Invited by Via Varejo Marketing team, we had the opportunity to once again collaborate with the redesign of one of the most iconic characters of the Brazilian advertising industry, the Baianinho of Casas Bahia. Aiming to follow the new Casas Bahia brand redesign and repositioning, CB borns to translate and communicate the company values through their social media channel, in a more empathetic, inclusive, and connected approach.
Respecting the legacy of the old versions, our approach was to keep all the main characteristics that make him recognizable, fixing anatomic issues, improving their mobility, and bringing a fresh new visual style and attitude inspired by the high-end animation standards.
The new CB is more plural, inclusive, and aims to represent all the Brazilians,
from north to south and you can follow him on @casasbahia.
The new CB redesign was featured trough all the main TV channels in Brazil,
with an animation created in partnership with the creatives from VLMY&R.
