Showcase: 40 Restaurant Identity Projects You’ll Be Inspired By

Coming up with a unique image for a business can be challenging and intimidating, especially for those who aren’t very artistically inclined. Trying to create a logo, menu, or any other kind of design can be stressful, time consuming, and ineffective, especially when it comes to the restaurant industry. When it comes to food, everything must be in perfect harmony, and the logo for a restaurant must encompass everything, from the restaurant’s vision, to the ingredients that they use, to the food that they serve. Bad designs can give a restaurant a bad reputation and an unfriendly, uninviting vibe, therefore, designers must pay close attention to every little detail.

However, if a restaurant succeeds at creating a warm and inviting vibe, it will attract more people and truly set itself apart from the rest. In the fast growing world of the food industry, a unique and eye catching image is vital for the restaurant’s success, and it all starts with a vision that leads to a beautiful design. Take for example EMBUTIQUE – it has it’s own logo and style, and the packaging is distinctive and reminds the customer where the food came from. This way it will imprint the restaurant’s name in our memory, which makes it much more likely for the customer to return and recommend it to others. Every packaging material is crafted carefully and attentively in order to make the customer aware of the brand’s identity.

However, if you’re not the most artsy person you’ll still be just fine. There are countless templates out there to help you build a beautiful image for your business. Take for example the Rustic Food Promo Flyer featured below, which is perfect for a new business, as it will help you build a flyer that will capture the customers’ attention and interest; and best of all, you don’t have to worry about the design part whatsoever. You can edit it to make it your own, and it even includes a tutorial on how to do so – it doesn’t get any easier than this – and the result is absolutely stunning!

We searched for the best and most attractive designs and compiled a list of 40 restaurant identity projects you’ll be inspired by. These are examples of superb designs created by talented artists from all around the world that will surely captivate you. If you saw these designs in real life you would surely not overlook them, as they attract your attention and immediately spark your interest. Great design is the first thing that a potential customer will notice, and will have a great influence on the popularity of your business. So have a look and judge for yourself, and we hope you’ll find these designs as lovely as we do!

New Wix Editor – Build a Responsive Website Like a Pro

As most of you know, Wix is a website builder that has helped millions of people create beautiful websites without writing or knowing a single line of code. In fact, Wix has been used to create websites by more than 80 million people in 180 countries (yes, this is not a typo). That should speak volumes about the quality of Wix’s platform. But to make things even better, Wix has constantly been improving their platform, adding features like parallax scrolling, video backgrounds and much more. Wix’s newly revamped website editor is quite hard to beat. In this article, we are going to summarize the features  that the New Wix Editor has. So let us go ahead and take a look at what Wix is capable of:

Strips

What’s that, some of you may ask? When you’re creating a website, you want to control everything as much as possible, down to the smallest detail. You also want to be able to quickly add and re-arrange elements on your page. Strips is Wix’s way of giving user the control over horizontal sections on their website, making website building and editing a breeze. It’s like having your own section splitter built in, that lets you slice up the web page’s real estate section by section, in any way you like. Each strip can contain anything you want – HTML, video, photos, text and more. They can even be parallax strips if you want. You can also re-arrange your strips at any time with ease. Take a look below to see just how easy it is to add a strip using Wix:

First, I am going to create an account by entering email and password – as easy as that. Next, I am asked to choose my website template, so I am going to choose a Portfolio template as an example. It should be noted that there are a total of 33 beautiful portfolio & CV templates to choose from at the time of writing this article.

Once I chose the template, I am taken inside the new editor where all the magic happens. My initial thoughts about the editor are that everything is laid out and organized neatly, allowing me to access any section I want without spending too much time trying to find things.

To add a strip, simply click on the + button, and choose “Strip” from the elements option.

Adding Videos

Adding videos has never been easier than with the new Wix Editor. You can add videos quickly, and even as a website background in parallax mode. To add a video simply click on Add > Video part and then choose the video you want to add. You can also change various video settings such as styling, size, placement and more.

Parallax Scrolling

We love parallax scrolling. Parallax scrolling means the background image is moving at a slower speed than the foreground, creating a 3D effect in the eyes of the visitor. Adding parallax scrolling to your site using the new Wix Editor takes under 1 minute. Simply add a strip to your site and specify that it should be in parallax style.

Countless Templates

What good would a website builder be if it didn’t have a nearly unlimited number of built-in, responsive templates? Wix has all of that and more. You can choose from many beautiful templates from a number of categories such as business, online store, photography, music, design, restaurants & food, accommodation, events, portfolio & CV, blog, health & wellness, fashion & beauty, community & education, creative arts, landing pages or simply view newest or most popular templates. If you like to create things from scratch, you have that option too by starting with a blank template and customizing it fully from the start.

Plus much more

But this isn’t all. Wix also has a number of other awesome features such as:

  • pinning elements to the screen. This is an often overlooked but an extremely useful feature that everyone should take advantage of. When you have a website with an important element, let’s say for example you want people to contact you for a quote, then it’s in your best interest to pin the Contact Us button to the page, making it as easy as possible for the visitor to find the button and click it. The more obstacles you give to the visitor, the lower your conversion rates will be. Wix allows you to pin any element, helping you make your website’s goals easily achievable.
  • anchors menu. Anchors menu is Wix’s way of allowing you to put HTML links to take user from one section of the page to another section on the same page. So for example if you’re creating a parallax website with all content one 1 page, you can create menu anchors for “Portfolio”, “Contact Us”, “Testimonials” etc. Even if you aren’t creating a 1 page website, you can still take advantage of the anchors feature by creating anchors for specific things on the page, such as “read more” and anything else.
  • dozen of gallery styles. You can choose gallery styles such as masonry, collage, portrait grid, framed grid, rounded grid, chic grid, floating grid, honeycomb and many other beautiful gallery styles. You can even add full-width galleries with sliders.
  • buttons. The buttons section contains a number of beautiful call to action buttons, as well as icons, a custom PayPal “buy it now” button and many more.
  • boxes. Here you have the option to add a number of differently styled boxes and ribbons, to be used as you wish on your website.
  • various shapes. The shapes section contains a lot of different icons, shapes, ornaments, lines and more.
  • lists. Here you can choose lists such as top stories, testimonials, product lists (if you’re creating an eCommerce site), team members, music-related lists and others.
  • and much, much more
