TANGO EMPANDAS
Branding
Tango Empanada is an Argentinian restaurant local to Chantilly Virginia. Part of the project was to design a scalable logo, business card, packaging, and app icon.
Logo & Visual Identity


As an Argentinian brand, it was important to represent the Sun. The sun (El Sol de Mayo) represents freedom to Argentina. Mixing the silhouette of an empanada and the sun creates an easy-to-understand circular logo. And warm yellows were used to alude to the yellows present in many traditional Argentian dishes, including the titular Empanada.
​
Despite the complexity of the logo, it can easily be turned into a single-color design, perfect for limited color prints. The back of the business card is a great example of this design.



Sticker & App Icon


For easy marketing, I included a design for a sticker that can be either given to customers as a keepsake, or for sealing packages. So even when customers are away from the restaurant, they can be reminded of the Tango Empanada Brand. Included is a link to the company's website.
​
A less-detailed version of the logo was also created for applications such as App icons and Favicon for web.
