CARBON BODY,
ITALIAN SOUL
challenge
The founders of Brado, an independent automotive manufacturer born in the Italian Motor Valley, aimed to create an elite automotive brand from scratch for the international luxury leisure market. The goal was to capture the attention of collectors, investors, and private clients within the UHNWI (Ultra-High Net Worth Individual) network through a surgically planned pre-launch campaign, driven by the iconic Dune Buggy, the project’s “manifesto car”.
strategy
The analysis of the international restomod landscape allowed us to define Brado’s brand platform: from its positioning in the luxury leisure vehicle market to the development of strategic assets – from the brand essence to the selection of media contacts – ensuring a powerful market entry. A key strategic choice was leveraging signature design and the founders’ authority to generate immediate desire and credibility among a demanding audience, well ahead of the car’s physical debut.
We developed the brand architecture starting from the naming – Brado, symbolizing an untamed spirit stripped of the superfluous –, the logo, which combines Motor Valley technical excellence with signature design, and the payoff “Carbon Body, Italian Soul”. The claim “Have fun with Brado” and a branding strategy featuring bold, bright colors capable of evoking outdoor life and fun are now the hallmark traits of the brand both online and offline.
