Koto’s new branding for restaurant discovery app Franki feels lively, thoroughly human, and just the right amount of cute
Franki is an app for restaurants: people that like to visit them, and people who run them. Billed as a “social restaurant discovery and rewards platform”, Franki was founded by Austin, Texas-based Eugene Varricchio and Nick Bennett in 2020 (obviously not the best year for dining out, by any stretch), before expanding more broadly the following year. The platform itself...

Nuclear Standard by Grand Army, 2026
TRi-structural ISOtropic fuel is the world’s most advanced source of nuclear energy. Each particle is a miniature powerhouse. Put together, these particles power advanced reactors on Earth and in space. Combining the small to power the large, this idea forms the foundation of Grand Army’s visual identity for fuel producing company Nuclear Standard. Visually this is expressed by a dot...
Vrints-Kolsteren’s gorgeous identity for pizza restaurant Napoli on the Road brings a little mischief to minimalism
It’s not all that often you come across a project which I’m confident that 99.9% of people couldn’t possibly slate – or at least 99.9% of people with even the most flimsy interest in/awareness of graphic design, visual culture, or just generally looking at nice things. >Such is the case, however, with this beautiful rare beast – a piece of...

Tropical Smoothie Cafe by JKR, 2026
JKR’s logo for Tropical Smoothie Cafe is a simplified version of a palm tree, sort of modified to look a little bit like a T, in that the top line is made totally flat, rather unlike a palm tree, but the serif-y fronds beneath certainly point you towards the plant it represents. It’s a beautifully crafted mark, thoroughly distinctive, quirky...

Tempe Tourism by Attic Salt, 2026
Gateways to new experiences. Bridges between cultures, ideas and communities. Invitations to explore, engage and connect. Placemaking is full of this language, but it’s just not specific enough. Tempe Tourism’s strategy and new visual identity hinge on these familiar ideas. The accompanying TT Bridge brand mark, however, is a nifty little asset. It works for locals, referencing the historic Mill...

JKR’s Tropical Smoothie Cafe rebrand is deliciously on the nose, and all the better for it
“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is a phrase bandied about a fair bit across all facets of existence, but in some cases, that sentiment really does make sense. Such is the case with the iconography of ‘tropical’: it’s bright, it’s bold; it’s perennially close to the edge of a big body of water (warm ocean, sparkly surfaced pool);...
Ragged Edge creates refreshingly wholesome identity for AI notepad Granola
Granola is a brand that’s certainly made itself known in recent months – at least to those using various lines on the London Underground. Indeed, there was a time when you could barely move for its ads; its assertions that Granola was ‘not for breakfast’. Those ads certainly caught my eye, then – especially in a sea of similar things...

Folkland by Gander, 2026
‘Clean food is dirty work’ state potato obsessives Folkland on their homepage. It’s a line that neatly captures the honesty of the product and the spirit of the brand: good food begins on the ground, in the fields, in the dirt. This earthy, hands-on quality runs throughout Folkland’s visual identity, designed by Gander. At its centre is a wonderfully simple...
