We started thinking positively and said to ourselves, it's a month left till our degree is over and everything will come to an end, so we should give it our all and everything that we have in the next 4 weeks. It's the home run and we should just do the best we can, after all it's our major work.
Once we made the first step, as you expected, we got on a roll and things all fell into place. Motivation and the hunger to continue and drive to want to work hard all came back. We started redesigning all the things that we needed to. We updated the wall that we recently made, which has helped us a lot.
Of all our deliverables, most of them we actually had to reconsider. Over the space of 2 days we started redesigning everything we had to. Here are the results! despite hating to redesigning all of these and dreading this project already, but redesigning everything and looking at it we knew that it was all worth it and all the stress would always lead to something better. When our lecturer said we should go away and rethink things we didn't want to but being where we are now, we knew it was always going to be good for us and it was always going to get better design out of us. Even though it was really draining and challenging but it definitely does look better and we are happy with how everything unfolded, the good and bad.
We've been designing with what failed before in mind so we don't commit the same mistakes again. We started adding more images and patterns to our brand, making it look more complete. We started showing more love to our design and thinking about it before we commit to anything. We are happy with where we are at and the motivation is definitely there.
We decided to make a business card set with four different patterns, here are the two sets we are thinking of, one with black as well which we are leaning towards.
It was suggested that we use imagery in our loyalty cards, especially something with human elements in it since being a restaurant it's all about serving food for people. So we tried some ideas with imagery and playing with the image as well.
The L&P game definitely looks a lot better now but there still needs to be some work on it, we aren't happy with it just yet.
This is our little Instagram game that will be on the back of the specials menu. It was suggested that we use imagery as well since it's something fun and something that should get people excited, it's different from our menus. Started playing around with the layout and changing it up. It's looking better but we aren't sold on the image.
The following is the main menu, we ditched the lemon pattern and we tried several different ideas such as imagery, patterns, flat colour and outer glows, even a mixture of imagery and patterns. It definitely looks a lot more fresh.
The drinks menu has also been changed, we tried images and patterns. We like the patterns but unsure whether that clashes with the main menu if we use images for that.
Right now, although the truth is we are rushing for time and deadlines are really tight, but we are in a positive mood and we believe we can get this done.
