“Developing the branding for Botanica was one of my most proud creative moments. Working closely with the client, the identity was created to reflect the simple, authentic and real food take away experience of Botanica.

“I wanted to develop a visual identity that reinforced the values of the business – simply being the enjoyment of whole/real food. The complimentary creative elements such as the strawberry and fork etc, were a nod to this – why mess with something that is already perfect … nature.

“Simplicity was a perfect returning point for all elements of this brand from font choice to style of packaging.

“I also got to explore the playful side of the business with the packaging – a cheeky “Eat Me …” was thrown in to reflect the positive and joyful attitude of the owners.”

“Our aim: to capture the soul of the customer in the design. When Mikoto, the new restaurant in the heart of Stuttgart, this meant: to create an authentic Japanese concept that is both modern and traditional as the cuisine from Mikoto. We have in Shodo, the Art of Japanese calligraphy, deepens us. The lettering Mikoto puts on all print media across gold accents. Stylized fish scales suggest the specialties of Mikoto: Fish in all variations Japanese. We have developed a cubic grid that looks like a red thread through the entire appearance from print and digital to plate system of interior design. And there again: fish scales, golden accents, the color purple. We like consistent, beautiful design that tells a story. And this design says: There is so much more than just sushi.”

“Unser Ziel: Die Seele des Kunden im Design einfangen. Beim Mikôto, dem neuen Restaurant im Herzen Stuttgarts, bedeutete das: Ein authentisch japanisches Konzept zu kreieren, das so modern und zugleich traditionell ist wie die Küche vom Mikôto. Wir haben uns in Shodo, die Kunst der japanischen Kalligraphie, vertieft. Der Schriftzug Mikôto setzt über alle Printmedien hinweg Goldakzente. Stilisierte Fischschuppen deuten die Spezialitäten vom Mikôto an: Fisch in allen japanischen Variationen. Wir haben ein kubisches Raster entwickelt, das sich wie ein roter Faden durch das gesamte Erscheinungsbild zieht: Von Print und Digital bis ins Regalsystem des Interior Designs. Und auch dort wieder: Fischschuppen, goldene Akzente, die Farbe lila. Wir mögen konsequentes, schönes Design, das eine Geschichte erzählt. Und dieses Design erzählt: Hier gibt es so viel mehr als nur Sushi.”

“Dosmares is a surf & skate shop, the first one with its own e-commerce store fully operative in Uruguay. It ships all over the country. ”Dos mares” means ”two seas” in Spanish. One sea is the one that we all know, the one where surfers surf. The other, more metaphorical, is the asphalt sea where skateboarding is practiced.

“The representation of this meaning is visible in the logo, which is a number two lying on its side whose counter-form represents the shape of a sea wave.

“The whole Identity is based upon abstract illustrations and hand-written typography, all related to the mix of surf and skate culture.”

“The staff at Bar Pharma knows more about herbs, spices and spirits than anyone we know. They are more like pharmacists who cure your soul with the best cocktails, rums, gins from around the world. Thats why the old pharmacies, chemistry laboratories inspired the visual concept.

“The spices & fruits like nutmeg, vanilla, papaya were drawn by hand. The logo was engraved into the tiny medicine bottles (used for the shots). There is a periodic system with all the alcohols which you can find in the Pharma. In the interior kokedamas are hanging from above which are the works of a celebrated Hungarian plant designer, Gergely Hideg, known as Petit Planet.”
