Refugio Surf Café • Branding
Visual identity for a laid-back spot in Tamarindo that blends a bar, specialty coffee and cozy cabins — all surrounded by nature.
The Need
The brand needed a clear identity to unify all these elements, while staying true to its casual and welcoming atmosphere.
The Solution
We buit a bold wordmark, earthy colors and subtle tropical textures set the tone, striking a balance between playfulness and simplicity. Also, we developed a flexible identity system applied across menus, t-shirts, signage and promotional pieces. Everything was designed to live comfortably in both the physical space and social media.
Our Role
Visual identity, art direction, illustration, signage, menu design, print, copywriting.
