Back in October 2024, we designed .studio’s visual identity, a project we’re deeply in love with. Casapez is a brand offering culinary and cultural experiences between Barcelona and Cyprus, distinguished by a vision that goes beyond events to foster community, collaboration, and interdisciplinary connections.
Inspired by the symbolism of gathering around a table and the shift in contemporary gastronomy—where eating together transcends biological necessity—we developed a visual identity that is timeless, authentic, playful, expressive, and deeply human.
The brand is built from a single handwritten ligature that connects the two words that make up Casapez. This continuous stroke evokes the core of a fish, resembling of a fishbone, that structures and holds the brand together. It also reflects the brand’s purpose: bringing people together and connecting cuisines, spaces, arts, and mindsets under one roof. A symbol of cohesion, dialogue, and openness.
Its graphic system uses white space as if it were a table to be set — texts (people and conversations), symbols (food), and backgrounds (table) coexist to create a dynamic visual narrative. Free-placed, vibrant, scripted symbols add a fun and fresh attitude while maintaining a human touch. The expressive primary colors, inspired by the timeless works of Miró and Picasso, represent origin, purity of pigment, and a connection to primitive human emotions.
Finally, the Casa Pez totem serves as the personification of the brand — a playful, characterful figure that embodies its spirit and brings its visual universe to life.
