Resumen de Diseño de Logo

The Brief:
Design a logo for an upcoming Chinese restaurant, called 吃 chī canteen.

A Note:
We intend to work with the winning logo designer to build an eventual design toolkit (budget of up to US$4,000), which will include templates of calling cards, menu, posters, flyers, signage, uniform, carrier bags, etc.

The Concept:
The Chinese character 吃, pronounced chī, means — “eat”. It sounds like the tail-end of “teacher”... — “cher”.

吃 chī canteen is where you can very simply, chī canteen-style Chinese food.

It’s inspired by mixed rice stalls — the Chinese version of fast food, which are common in South East Asia. Just pick the dishes you want over your rice, pay at the counter, and dig in.

Our idea is to bring the same authentic (Asian) Chinese food to... a certain city, much like Gotham, but to do it classily — without the swank that makes it inaccessible, and without the grittiness that makes it just another chop suey restaurant.

The Theme:
The rice bowl is associated predominantly with the Chinese culture.

Naturally, at 吃 chī canteen, the rice bowl (blue & white porcelain) takes centre-stage — both in theme and décor, and in the way we serve our food.

Although, the allusion to being a Chinese restaurant is apparent in the theme; 吃 chī canteen avoids kitsch Chinese iconography like lanterns, dragons, fortune cookies, peonies, and... Chairman Mao.

Meanwhile, long tables and benches make eating at 吃 chī canteen; a casual, modern, unintimidating, and communal experience.

The One-liner Brief for Lazy Readers:
A modern wordmark or pictorial logo for 吃 chī canteen, a cafeteria-style Chinese restaurant that dishes out complete meals in rice bowls.

Thanks for your time!

Debes tener

• The Chinese character 吃 and its pronunciation, which is chī (notice the accent).
  - chī canteen should also appear either all in lower case, or all in upper case.
  - 吃 is an important element of the logo, but the rice bowl is not, so you can skip icons of bowls altogether if you like.

Agradable de tener

• 3 logo versions; full colour, black and white, and keyline for embossing purposes.
  - Show application if the proposed logo design is flexible i.e. whether 吃 and chī canteen can be separated, whether chī can appear underneath 吃, or whether 吃 must always be followed with chī canteen, etc.
  - No preferred font type, but would like to see a version using Century Schoolbook.
  - Open to modern Chinese calligraphy/Chinese watercolour-type text.

No debería tener

• Overt and typical Chinese references i.e. dragons, seals, peonies, fortune cookies, chopsticks, etc.
