Rebranding for cafe

Bouy Restaurant Branding

Navigating a New Brand Identity:

Buoy Cafe & Eatery's new logo, a lighthouse for gastronomy enthusiasts, echoes the maritime charm of Auckland. Drawing inspiration from nautical icons, the buoy in the logo is a metaphor for the eatery's role: a guiding star for those seeking refuge in good food and ambiance. This emblem is more than a symbol; it’s a beacon of the high-quality dining experience that awaits at Buoy Cafe & Eatery.


A Menu that Maps Out Flavours:

Mia Creative understands that a menu should be more than a list—it should entice and guide. We've given Buoy Cafe & Eatery a menu that doubles as a culinary compass, with a straightforward layout and descriptions that lead diners to their desired dining experience. Each item, from the ‘Big Buoy Burger’ to the 'Buoy’s Seafood Chowder', is an invitation to embark on a taste voyage like no other.


Branding in Hand; The Take-Away Experience:

A take-away coffee cup can carry a brand far and wide. For Buoy Cafe & Eatery, Mia Creative designed cups that serve as mobile ambassadors, graced with an inviting bistro set illustration that promises relaxation with every sip. This cup doesn’t just hold coffee; it holds the essence of a leisurely pause by the water, extending the cafe’s presence beyond its physical location.

The Signage and Cards That Signal Style

A brand’s attention to detail can be seen in the smallest things, like business cards and signs. Buoy Cafe & Eatery’s bold red and crisp white branding elements crafted by Mia Creative, echo the vibrancy and clarity of maritime visuals. These are not mere informational pieces but are integral parts of a greater story—a story of coastal culinary adventures and memorable moments.
