Smoking Hearts - Smoked BBQ Restaurant Brand Identity

Smoking Hearts BBQ - Brand Identity Design

Creative Concept / Visual Identity / Brand Language / Naming / Social Media

Smoking Hearts BBQ is a new kind of venture for Studio Nice One, set up as a partnership with Food Studio; a food court inside of Colombo City Centre mall. We worked as part of a small team to create a new kind of food outlet for Colombo, not only to establish the restaurant but manage it thereafter. Consisting of a collaboration responsible for food & menu development, marketing, photography & video, Smoking Hearts was born out of the need for a quality BBQ spot in the city that focused on slow smoked meats in an immersive setting. The concept was inspired by the idea of obsession and wanting more, with meats smoked with ‘tender, loving care’ , served with love to leave a lasting impression. A series of collages played on the idea of meats & madness, driving people to distraction in search of their next fix with a smoking leopard adding a carnivorous Lankan spin.
