About Morph Blagovna znamka za hrano in pijačo

Morph je program blagovne znamke za bar in restavracijo na strehi v Hangzhouju na Kitajskem. Identiteta črpa navdih iz Liangzhuja, starodavne kitajske ljubezenske zgodbe, ter iz iridescentnih kril modrega metulja morfo. Logotip združuje oblike kril samice in samca metulja v en sam simbol. Temno vijolično ozadje namiguje na zvezdnato noč, medtem ko krila prikazujejo prehod mavričnih barv. Glavni grafični element je vzorec metulja, podoben kalejdoskopu. Ta vzorec se pojavlja na jedilniku, škatlici za vžigalice, video projekcijah in stenski umetniški skulpturi.
