Visual Identity and Packaging Design for Amira Shawarma
Creative Process:
The creative process employed a combination of design thinking and strategic marketing. We conducted a thorough analysis of our brand, target audience, and gastronomic proposition. This research, combined with market analysis, enabled us to identify key differentiators and opportunities for our visual identity.
The chosen color palette for our visual identity, consisting of vibrant shades of pink and red, set them apart from the competition. By deviating from the traditional color schemes typically associated with Arabic cuisine, we aimed to catch the attention of passersby and create a lasting impression.
The logo design, a crucial aspect of Amira's brand identity, was meticulously crafted with rounded shapes and a bold weight. This visually striking logo reflects the commitment to quality and captures the essence of our brand. It embodies the brand's core attributes, including delicious shawarma and a vibrant dining experience.
To humanize the brand and foster a deeper connection with its customers, we developed two retro-style character illustrations—a male and a female—that embody our friendly and inviting personality. These characters, reminiscent of the golden age of food culture, become our brand ambassadors, representing the joyful and flavorful experience of dining at Amira Shawarma Restaurant. They are featured across our packaging design and communication materials, further strengthening our brand identity.
