INTERNATIONAL BRANDING AWARDS

Pizzeta wins Silver at Pentawards 2026 in London

Pizzeta, an artisanal pizza base for which BroHouse created the naming, visual identity and packaging, won Silver at Pentawards 2026 in category B.06 Ready-to-eat dishes and fast food. The awards were presented on 16 October 2026 at the gala at Magazine London. It is Pizzeta’s second Silver this year, after Dieline Awards 2026 in New York.

Why a Pentawards award matters

Pentawards is an international competition dedicated to packaging design, founded in 2007 in Brussels. Entries are judged by an international jury, and trophies range from Bronze to Diamond. BroHouse has won Bronze here before, in 2020 for SanoVita and in 2022 for Crida Pharm. The 2026 Silver is the agency’s highest level at Pentawards so far.

Same pack, two juries, two Silvers

Dieline Awards and Pentawards have different juries and take place on different continents. When the same pack is awarded by both in the same year, the result doesn’t depend on one jury’s taste. Pizzeta drops the category clichés: no pizza slice, no flame, no chef’s mustache. On a flat blue background, minimalist illustrations capture the gestures Italians use to talk without words. Our thanks go to Marius Cristinel Tanasă, Pizzeta’s founder, who had the courage to approve a direction that looks like nothing else on the shelf. The full process is in the Pizzeta case study.

“The pizza shelf has looked the same for decades: red, slices, flames. We put just one hand on the box, speaking Italian. Two juries, on two continents, understood it without translation.” — Horia Oane, BroHouse co-founder

BroHouse’s sixth international award

BroHouse’s track record now includes: Bronze Pentawards 2020 for SanoVita, Bronze Pentawards 2022 for Crida Pharm, Gold at Transform Awards Europe 2025 for Blue, two Silvers at Dieline Awards 2026, for Pizzeta and Spumos, and Silver Pentawards 2026 for Pizzeta. The awards cover different categories and project types: food, home care, supplements and mobility. All awarded projects are in the BroHouse portfolio.

Spumos wins Silver at Dieline Awards 2026 in the Household category

BroHouse wins a second Silver in the same evening at Dieline Awards 2026, this time for Spumos – a liquid detergent for families, built from the ground up alongside the brand’s team. The project won in category 4A: Household maintenance & home improvement, a category dominated by international brands with large communication budgets. A Romanian entrepreneurial brand winning Silver in this category, on the New York stage, is not an accident. It is the result of a consistent refusal to accept the visual solutions that already exist on shelf.

Why it is hard to stand out in the Household category

Home care products are among the hardest to differentiate visually. The category is governed by clear conventions — blue for cleanliness, green for natural, white for freshness – and by global brands that invest heavily in recognition. Winning Silver here means the jury saw in Spumos a solution that breaks category convention without losing commercial relevance. That is precisely what Dieline evaluates: creativity, marketability, and execution — simultaneously.

Spumos: a sensory visual identity for a home care product

The challenge for BroHouse was to build an identity for a liquid detergent that communicates cleanliness, warmth, and the character of a home product – without relying on the visual clichés of the category. The team developed a sensory design system capable of conveying genuine emotion and differentiation on shelf, starting from naming and continuing through logo design and packaging. The client, Ioan Alexandru Marin, was an active partner throughout the process – without his courage to approve an unconventional direction, the Silver in New York would not exist. The full process is documented in the Spumos case study.

Two Silver awards in the same evening – what this means for BroHouse and their clients

Two Silver awards at Dieline Awards 2026, in the same evening, show that the BroHouse method works consistently — across different categories, for different types of products, with entrepreneurial clients who chose to believe in a vision before seeing it finished on shelf. Alongside the Gold at Transform Awards Europe 2025 and two Bronze Pentawards, Spumos and Pizzeta consolidate an international track record built project by project. All awarded projects are available in the BroHouse portfolio.

Pizzeta wins Silver at Dieline Awards 2026 in the Ready to eat category

BroHouse wins Silver at Dieline Awards 2026, the international packaging design competition held as part of LUXE PACK New York. The Pizzeta project — developed entirely by the BroHouse team, from naming through logo design and packaging — won in category 1E: Ready to eat, fast food, meal kits, competing against over 1,500 entries from approximately 40 countries. This recognition confirms that strategic packaging design built in Bucharest can compete, and win, on the world stage.

How Dieline Awards judges entries

Dieline Awards reached its 17th edition in 2026. Every project is evaluated by a jury of specialists across five simultaneous criteria: creativity, marketability, innovation, technical execution, and on-pack branding. Aesthetics alone do not win here. What wins is the ability to solve a real business problem in a distinctive way, backed by solid execution from concept through production. A Silver means the project convinced the jury on all these criteria, not on aesthetics alone.

Pizzeta: branding and packaging built from scratch for an artisan pizza base

The brief for BroHouse was to build a complete brand for an artisan pizza base — a product that needed to communicate craft, quality, and Italian authenticity directly from a supermarket shelf. The team developed the naming, visual identity, and packaging system, creating a concept capable of standing apart in a category dominated by generic visual solutions. The full details of the creative and strategic process are available in the Pizzeta case study.

BroHouse: the fifth major international award, the second in the same evening

The Silver for Pizzeta is part of a track record built consistently: Bronze Pentawards 2020 for SanoVita, Bronze Pentawards 2022 for Crida Pharm, Gold Transform Awards Europe 2025 for Blue, and now two Silver Dieline Awards 2026 — for Pizzeta and Spumos, won in the same evening in New York. Each award comes from a different category and a different type of project, reflecting genuine versatility rather than narrow specialization. The awarded visuals and full projects are available in the BroHouse portfolio.

First European Gold for Romanian branding in mobility

BroHouse brings to Romania its first Gold award at the Transform Awards Europe, the European competition dedicated to branding and brand transformation. The Blue project, developed for Autonom, won Gold in the “Best Visual Identity – Transport and Logistics” category. The award confirms the value of branding built for scale, clarity, and long-term differentiation.

What Transform Awards Europe rewards

The Transform Awards Europe reward branding and brand transformation projects from across Europe. Each project is evaluated by an international jury of senior brand strategists, consultants, and creative leaders, focusing on strategy, innovation, execution, and real-world impact. The 2025 Gold is international validation for the Blue project and for BroHouse. The full list of winners is published on the official Transform Awards Europe winners list.

Blue: a visual identity transforming Romanian ridesharing

The award celebrates a distinctive and functional visual identity created for Blue, a brand redefining local ridesharing standards. Built around a deep blue and energetic yellow palette, the identity communicates trust, professionalism, and technological confidence. More than a visual system, Blue is a living brand – integrated across the digital product, the mobile app, and a growing fleet of cars in Bucharest. Its strong urban presence has turned the brand into a recognizable reference point in the city’s mobility landscape.

BroHouse: growing international visibility through award-winning branding

The Gold trophy is the third international award won by BroHouse, after the Bronze Pentawards of 2020 and 2022. Success at Transform Awards Europe 2025 strengthens BroHouse’s mission to elevate Romanian branding standards and deliver strategic brand identities with global relevance. The award visuals and full project breakdown are featured in the BroHouse portfolio, showcasing how strategy, design, and execution align to create brands that perform beyond aesthetics.

Bronze at Pentawards 2022 for Crida Pharm

BroHouse won a Bronze Pentawards medal in 2022, at the international competition dedicated to packaging design, for the Crida Pharm veterinary supplements packaging. Awarded in the Pet Products category, it recognises a complete system of brand strategy, visual identity, and packaging design.

A proven award-winning branding trajectory: from SanoVita to Pet Care

This international recognition is not an isolated success, but part of a well-defined growth trajectory. BroHouse previously won a Pentawards medal in 2020 for the SanoVita plant-based pâté packaging. Winning across categories – from FMCG and Food & Beverage to Pet Care branding – demonstrates the agency’s ability to create relevant, high-impact brand systems that perform consistently on the global stage.

Pentawards: the competition dedicated to packaging design

Founded in 2007 in Brussels, Pentawards is an international competition dedicated to packaging design. Awards are given on five levels (Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze), for innovation, strategic thinking, and execution quality. Repeated recognition at Pentawards is a clear indicator of an agency’s long-term vision, design maturity, and international credibility.

Consistent results across categories

A second Pentawards award, after 2020, shows that BroHouse’s results repeat across categories. For clients seeking a strategic branding partner, it means results verified by international juries. For the Romanian creative industry, BroHouse’s success demonstrates that Romanian branding agencies can compete and win internationally.

BroHouse wins bronze at the international Pentawards 2020

Our packaging design project for SanoVita won Bronze at the Pentawards 2020, the international competition dedicated to packaging design. It competed against over 2,000 entries from 60 countries, and the gala was held online due to the pandemic.

Why the Pentawards matter

Founded in 2007 in Brussels, the Pentawards are an international competition dedicated to packaging design. Entries are judged by an international jury, and awards range from Bronze to Diamond. Winning here shows that a pack convinces an international jury, not just the local market.

The award-winning project: SanoVita plant-based pâté branding system

The award was earned in the Food Trends category, for the complete branding and packaging design system developed for SanoVita’s new range of plant-based pâtés made from red lentils and beans. BroHouse designed a coherent, scalable visual identity for a portfolio of eight SKUs, using expressive ingredient-led illustrations to communicate health, taste, and credibility directly at shelf level.

Shared success: the power of courageous brand partnerships

As stated by Costin Oane, Art Director at BroHouse: “To reach this level, you need a client as brave as the creative solution itself. We proudly share this trophy with SanoVita.” This recognition highlights a core principle of our branding philosophy: exceptional results emerge when strategic vision is matched by client trust and bold decision-making. True innovation is always a shared achievement.

Raising the bar for Romanian branding on the international stage

This international branding award confirms that Romanian agencies can create work with global impact and relevance. For BroHouse, it reinforces our mission to elevate Romanian brand strategy and design on the world stage, collaborating with entrepreneurs and companies ready to challenge conventions.
