About Morph Branding pentru Alimente și Băuturi

Morph este un program de branding pentru un bar și restaurant situat pe acoperiș, în Hangzhou, China. Identitatea se inspiră din Liangzhu, o veche poveste de dragoste chineză, și din aripile irizate ale fluturelui morpho albastru. Logo-ul unește formele aripilor fluturelui femelă și mascul într-un singur simbol. Un fundal violet-închis sugerează o noapte înstelată, în timp ce aripile prezintă o tranziție de culori curcubeu. Un model de fluture asemănător unui caleidoscop este elementul grafic principal. Acest model este aplicat pe meniu, pe cutia de chibrituri, în proiecții animate și pe o sculptură murală de artă.

The dark purple colour is used as the background colour to represent the starry night while the wings of the gynandromorph mirror the colourful transition of the rainbow. The kaleidoscope-like butterfly pattern is the main planar element, showing the unpredictable and mysterious qualities of the blue butterfly in the light and shadow. Such patterns will continue to be applied to menu, dynamic projections, and even artwork. The choice of fonts, young, stylish which converges with the taste of the futuristic interior design.
