História The ad is very minimalist in its art-direction deploying just two visual elements off a white backgound. The headline makes the point that the Penguin imprint serves as a guarantee of quality in choosing a book. The manner in which only half the logo appears is testament to both the boldness of the ad's execution and the recognizability of the Penguin device.
Filosofia The task entrusted to Mustoe Merriman Herring Levy was to position Penguin as a purveyor of distinction, innovation and entertainment. The brand strategy for the advertising was to 'claim ownership of language and reading'.
Problema Penguin Books is the leading publisher in the UK. To an extent, however, it had become a victim of its own success. The logo is so familiar, the famous old orange spines so prevalent that book buying consumers had begun to perceive Penguin as an old-fashioned brand. Penguin needed to move away from such school-room associations and create a public image more in keeping with its cutting-edge publishing output.
