Design

We created a light-hearted identity based on custom-drawn smiley faces and a unique, round typeface. The design system accommodates both long-form text and photos, but is also adaptable for initiatives like newsletters and a food club. The color palette ties everything together and makes it look unmistakably Berlin Food Stories.

Development

The website for Berlin Food Stories is based on a custom CMS that allows editors to add different editorial formats like meal reviews, articles, listicles etc. Visitors can explore the restaurant database via an interactive map and filter for their preferences. That way, the perfect eat is always just a quick search away.
