This is an identity for a favourite restaurant and bar to the locals. It is a a local institution and loved by many for being as it was 10 years ago. The client wanted to develop a new brand without upsetting those regulars but appear up to date to new customers.
The mark was inspired by an actual cage that houses their wines at the back of the restaurant. The hand drawn type and illustrations were developed to give the brand a relaxed, children and family friendly environment.
The brand name was inspired by its NZ origins, the Maori language and it pure make-up, hence the pura part of the name.
We developed a vibrant mark and bold visual language to share the unique (and exciting) story of Apura. The images evoke the purity of this product and the colour palette was picked from the NZ landscape.
