overview
Branding for Cafe Diego where the spirit of Argentina is felt in every detail.
challenge
We were challenged to get not just a football fans club but show something typical for Argentina and present Diego as a part of it - a place to enjoy nonalcoholic beer and tasty food while watching another football match.
solution
As festive as his native country, Diego Armando Maradona became the main character and the core the brand identity is constructed on. The inspiration of the brand is expressed through its colors and Diego’s illustrated portrait. Celebrating the colorful Argentinian backstreets, architecture and street art in the poor districts, we have illustrated Diego’s portrait in that style as well.
Developed to be a take away café, the essence of the brand is mostly expressed in the medias of the brand identity, with its black & white and colorful elements. The packaging is specially developed for takeaway, as it is so self-sufficient to live out of the café but anyway talk about its identity and its appurtenance to Cafe Diego. Comprising a big part in the identity the stenciled head of Diego Maradona and the logo are the commonly placed identity elements on the medias. We also took the pages of the newspapers with articles about the legendary football player and injected them into the brand identity as media. Located in Abu Dhabi, Cafe Diego was developed to create a small Argentina there, with its essence and the spirit we enriched it with.
