PROJECT OVERVIEW

Tacubaya is a Cuban family-owned restaurant in Nicaragua with an identity inspired by the warmth and visual richness of Cuban homes. I developed the logo, patterns, apparel, signage, and branded materials using references from traditional tile work and familiar domestic details. The goal was to create a restaurant brand that felt culturally rooted, welcoming, and established rather than trend-driven.
