Cantina | Branding for Italian Restaurant

Cantina, nestled in the heart of Egypt, is a vibrant Italian restaurant renowned for its lively ambiance and delectable cuisine. With a menu that blends traditional Italian classics with innovative culinary creations, Cantina offers a fusion dining experience like no other. Whether you're craving creative small plates or hearty mains, Cantina promises an unforgettable journey through the flavors of Italy. Perfect for food enthusiasts and social butterflies alike, Cantina invites you to indulge in its playful atmosphere and connect over delicious meals with friends and family.

The owner prefers the branding to avoid traditional Italian themes. Instead, they aim for a fun and modern brand identity that reflects Cantina's lively spirit. The brand identity should be vibrant and dynamic, using colors and graphics that evoke fun and excitement.

The brief was to create a logo, along with a visually appealing menu design, paper bags, pizza boxes, and pasta bowls that capture Cantina's welcoming and playful atmosphere.

For Cantina, I crafted a captivating logo that shows the restaurant's wood-fired pizza focus. The logo features an illustration of a person sitting in a wine glass, enjoying a slice of pizza, evoking a sense of joy and celebration. Paired with a lively font that exudes fun yet maintains readability, the logo perfectly captures Cantina's vibrant personality and its dedication to delivering an unforgettable dining experience.
