Giovedì restaurant, Honolulu
Faune by Alice Savoie and Knif Mono available at A is for are used for the identity of Giovedì, an Italian-Asian restaurant in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The visual identity was designed by Onward Creative who write:
Located in the historic heart of Honolulu’s Chinatown, Giovedì offers a unique fusion of Italian classics with Asian-inspired flavors. Created by acclaimed chef Bao Tran and partner Jennifer Akiyoshi, this multi-room dining destination features a vibrant central bar, indoor seating, and a charming patio. The name, meaning “Thursday” in Italian, pays homage to the weekly dinner parties the duo hosted in New York on their one night off—where many of the menu’s signature dishes were first conceived.
The logotype was meticulously customized from the Holise typeface by Inès Davodeau. Leveraging the natural symmetry of the central V, Onward skewed the O and E to create a dynamic visual balance.
The Chinese typeface used for the stacked letters next to the dragons is yet unidentified.
