Chop & Grubs

Logo Design | Branding
Project Overview
On this project, I designed and branding the startup "Chops & Grubs" which is a restaurant or eatery that is focuses more on African and local dishes. They were just starting up and basically had nothing to work with. This was a blank slate.
My Contributions
For this project, I was tasked with coming up with several ideas and concepts for the logo and branding the company overall. I was to determine the best logo type, the typography, colors and color shades to be used by the company. They were a startup and did not have need for further branding beyond this.

As with my usual approach, before I start, I collect information about the company I want to brand such as: what is the nature of the business? How long have they been around? Where do they see themselves in 10 years? What new lines do they see the business to branching into in future? How do people perceive their service? What are people saying about them? and more.

By compiling the answers, I get a good understanding and feel of the company. I can almost picture how people perceive them in the market and so use those properties to determine the best colors, typography, and logo type. Afterwards, I came up with 3 logo designs and showed them to the client and this one was picked. Afterwards, I go back to further simplify or adjust the logo.

At the end of the process, this was the final logo design the client and I were pleased with.
