Haiku Branding

HAIKU // SUSHI POETRY

Restaurant Branding Design: Naming, logo, interior graphics, signage

We were hired to develop a complete restaurant branding design package for this Asian influenced sushi and seafood buffet. www.haikubuffet.com

Haiku Naming:

After research and brand development we came up with the name Haiku:
– Haiku is a Japanese word that is familiar to westerners.
– Sushi is a kind of poetry, like a haiku, a specific form with few ingredients carefully chosen and arranged.

Haiku Logo:

The logotype uses Asian inspired letterforms and the symbol is a play on Japanese letterforms and calligraphy using seafood and sushi symbols.
