Introducing my brand design for Cantina, an Italian fusion restaurant with a free-spirited vibe.

I had so much fun with this brief! It called for plenty of colour & character and that is always a pleasure.

In the shape of the tomato I found a letter C and a heart shape and a playful concept flowed from there...

I have included several versions of the logo as I can't decide which works best...perhaps they can all be used as part of the brand identity.

You have traveled too fast over false ground;
Now your soul has come to take you back.

Take refuge in your senses, open up
To all the small miracles you rushed through.

Become inclined to watch the way of rain
When it falls slow and free.

Imitate the habit of twilight,
Taking time to open the well of color
That fostered the brightness of day.

Draw alongside the silence of stone
Until its calmness can claim you.

Be excessively gentle with yourself.
