Chapter 01

Overview

The task was to create a complete brand identity for a pizzeria called CRÜST, including the logo, posters, color palette, merchandise, packaging, and other brand assets.

As a self-initiated project, the creative direction was developed independently. The goal was to create a pizzeria brand that breaks away from traditional Italian restaurant aesthetics, instead embracing a minimal and abstract visual language that helps it stand out from the many conventional pizzerias on the market.

Chapter 02

Name Idea.

I stumbled upon the name CRÜST because it bears a strong resemblance to the word crust.

The brand was immediately recognizable, and people could instantly understand what it was about thanks to the strong wordplay. The name creates a clear association with pizza while maintaining a distinctive and memorable identity.

In the picture you can see diffrent versions of logos that i had during my process of choosing the name and style, as you can see the second choice for the name was BELLA CROSTA but it didnt quite fit what i was going for so i ended up scraping it.

Chapter 03

Execution.

Building on the logo and brand color palette, I created a cohesive corporate identity across a range of brand touchpoints, including:

  • Campaign posters

  • Packaging design

  • Business cards

  • Menu design

  • A4 stationery

  • Social Media design
