Tropic Que
Logo and brand design for Tropic Que, a Caribbean themed barbecue restaurant in Little Rock, Arkansas.
-
The owners of a new Caribbean-inspired restaurant approached me to create a logo and brand design that captured the vibrant colors and bold flavors of the Caribbean. The brand needed to feel lively, approachable, and fun—reflecting the energetic spirit and distinct tastes of the restaurant. Specifically, the owners wanted to incorporate a chicken icon, as it represents the restaurant’s primary protein. The final logo features a playful chicken posing as a flamingo, adding a unique and whimsical touch. Final deliverables included the main logo and its variations, a color palette, custom icons, and brand patterns.
