Luca’s
Handmade Pasta Ristorante
Luca’s Italian Ristorante is a modern Italian eatery that celebrates the joy of good food, good wine, and good company. It’s lively, welcoming, and a little bit cheeky — the kind of place where unique, seasonal plates meet big personalities. The restaurant wanted a brand that captured its Italian roots while standing out with color, confidence, and inclusiveness.
The goal was to bring that unmistakable Italian vibrancy to life through energy and soul. I used bold colors, layered textures, and pattern-driven graphics to evoke the rhythm of an Italian piazza: lively, passionate, and full of movement but never chaotic. Every element, from the typography to the menu design, was crafted to feel approachable yet expressive — a visual invitation to sit down, share a meal, and stay awhile.
