Info.

Malfy needed a stylish way to explain the culture of the aperitivo while staying rooted in the brand’s own design language. Wild drew inspiration from classic Italian graphic postcards and the atmosphere of the Amalfi Coast, combining historical context, drinks preparation and a rich sun-soaked visual style.

It is a strong example of brand-world animation: making product ritual and cultural storytelling feel crafted, distinctive and enjoyable to watch.
