Work Description:
The logo of Seattle Noodle, designed for a brand new Seattle-based Asian restaurant Grand Noodle House Seattle, was selected and published by LogoLounge Book Series – Volume 12 on January 5, 2021.
To create the symbol mark of the restaurant logo, I used wavy lines to symbolize noodle inside a bowl, and display an American symbol onto the bowl to present the meaning of Asian American food and a restaurant in the U.S.. To create the word mark of the restaurant logo, I designed the logotype ring through a unique typeface and pathfinder in Adobe Illustrator, and added the symbol of star anise, one of the most popular seasonings in Asian cuisine, into the ring.
