DESIGN NAME: WikiWiki Poke Shop
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Branding
INSPIRATION: After seeking design studios in Chicago and Michigan, WikiWiki Poke Shop hired us to break out of the category norms: Provenance or "Tiki" cliche Hawaiian language.
Instead, his brief was to make something loud, energetic, and jellyfish inspired.
With the restaurant being situated in a medium-size city in Michigan, the design brought the feeling of London and Amsterdam to the town.
The brand name - Wiki Wiki - allowed for plenty of typographic exploration, resulting in a dynamic identity that can be changed up frequently with its bold visuals.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Wiki Wiki's bold approach to Poke seafood dishes led us to take an equally bold approach: black and white, bold colours, and a dynamic identity.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: These items are used to house food for take-away. The user receives them upon purchase of a meal.
