A New Restaurant Concept

SOLUTIONS WE PROVIDED

Meet Chachako, a free-spirited and adventurous chef who scours the world to bring home the most glorious grills and fares from all corners. We were tasked to create the brand concept for this new grill restaurant located in Jurong Point, Singapore. We conceptualised the brand name, identity, and touchpoints to express the values, personality, and flavours of the restaurant. A comprehensive brand guide is also produced to provide guidance in communicating the Chachako brand accurately and consistently across its outlets.

Brand Logo & Tagline

Inspired by pieces of charcoal used for grills, the logo is edgy and energetic, reflecting the dynamism of the dishes serve and a fun place to hang out for customers of all ages. The tagline embodies a sense of freedom and adventure, and a blend of the diverse foods of the world. We did not put a label on the cuisines crafted by Chachako; Chachako's food is not about where they are from; it is about the journey. It is an advocate for creating possibilities in food to curate a distinctive blend of Asian-infused grill in a modern-western style that is eclectic, quirky and full of surprises. The brand's main icon can also be used as a graphic style by switching the element of fire out with a relevant iconic visual that clearly convey what it represents. These graphics can be used as secondary icons.

BRAND IDENTITY

To visually represent grilling without borders, we mixed both careful and spontaneous elements. Chachako brand is portrayed as both experimental and adventurous with free forms. At the same time, the clean and structured forms represents Chachako being bold and unique. The colour palette represents a contrasting range of cool and warm colours that are bold and bright, depicting the boldness of the brand, while the typography expresses a fresh, quirky look packed with personality using the font type Source Sans Pro, which has a distinctive lettering tail, expressing modernity and the boldness to be different. The imagery is curated with a touch of cosiness and comfort from home, portraying a dining scene at home.

BRAND TOUCH POINTS

The various brand touchpoints includes the food menu, various food packaging—such as takeaway kraft bags, cup sleeve, paper bag—uniform and apron, as well as a set of corporate stationery.
