Delice Food Capitals Visual Identity
The visual identity for Délice Food Capitals, an international network celebrating culinary excellence in cities around the globe, was created in collaboration with the minds behind the organization. The project aimed to create a cohesive and visually compelling brand that reflects the vibrancy and diversity of the network's member cities. The identity combines bold typography, modern design elements, and a palette inspired by global cuisine to communicate Délice’s mission of fostering connections through food, culture, and shared values.

Scope
Visual Identity
The logo itself is split into 3 parts, each with a different meaning, adding up to the whole mark.
The star as a whole is meant to represent the endless possibilities of international cuisine.
Inside the star is a F and a C, representing the name Food Capitals. Additionally, the arrow in the bottom left is pointing up to the right, representing upward forward progress. Part of the Food Capitals mission is to gather international resources to solve food challenges such as sustainability in farming.
Logo Breakdown
There were many experiments while developing the final logo system. These are just a select few options that were considered before the final logo was developed and presented. These rudimentary ideas ended up translating into the final logo in one way or another.
Present in many of the logo ideas was some form of the idea of coming together. Due to the unique nature of Food Capitals, being a global organization, there was no one way to showcase food that would feel universal. So the idea of food was abstracted into feelings of collaboration, togetherness, and the physical act of gathering at a table and breaking bread together.
