Launch Conception & Organisation

For five years we created and managed the worldwide image and PR department for La Cornue, a benchmark for excellence in the world of gastronomy. Managing the company’s French heritage and its representation throughout the world were the objectives of my mission as was the development of contemporary products for a new audience.

Drawing up marketing plans and new products, managing press agencies around the world, creating communication tools, launching new products, running events in the retailer network, public relations… I managed these missions and actions all over the world.

We designed with the help of a graphic design studio all the brand’s PR tools: sales offers, sales tools, cooking lessons, invitations, press kits…

The most relevant projects are explained in more detail on other pages on the website.

Launch a traditional brand into a world of design 

The creation of the “La Cornue by Wilmotte” line was a challenge for this manufacturer known for its traditional style. MKGB was consulted to organise a global launch with the press, retailers and customers.

La Cornue attended the Milan Furniture Show for the very first time. MKGB centralised the work of over ten PR agencies for the press international coverage.

Frontline Studio showcases the best craftsmen in the world of decoration.  Tapestry workshops Philippe Coudray, a major player in the French interior scene, entrusted us with the creation of his website.

Philippe Coudray is a lover of beautiful fabrics and sophisticated classical tapestry techniques.  His colorful personality is translated with a contrasted graphic language, a strong brutalist typeface in a world of softness.

Like trimmings that would dress up a window decoration, a lace ribbon runs through the entire website. Rods with tiebacks punctuate the titles of the different sections.

Baroque, bold, rock

Throughout the website, we opposed to this baroque world, a strong and brutalist kind of typeface.  The font is imposing, thus creating a beautiful dynamic as well as a spectacular visual effect.
