Me: \"Yes.\"
----
A very unique and interesting brand concept for Japanese-Hawaiian restaurant that specialized in serving musubi (A nori covered ball of rice with various fillings and flavors)
There are many kinds of yōkai (supernatural beings found in Japanese folk religion) call it Japanese ghost if you want :p. I choose to go with an imagery of Tengu as the main logo, reason is because it can be easily recognized by people as a being from Japanese folklore.
This unique & peculiar characteristic of Tengu (Red face, long nose, white hair) plus a silhouette of rising sun in the background convey more authentic, humble & affordable image that says the shop is here to fill the bellies of the working class without breaking the bank. Also fun Tengu expression while eating musubi resonates cheerful vibes that speaks they serve the ultimate comfort food that can even make a ghost smile! :)")

The idea for this logo came right when I see one of my british shorthair (Name's Chiko, nyan~ :3 ) Groom herself on top of my unfinished Nisio Isin light novels, (I really need to teach her some manner -_-).
Anyway, I wanted to make a logo that tell a story, something atmospheric, scenic, and whimsical. like... a library in the sky with a giant book as it's roof. Stand tall under bright beautiful shining star in the form of geometric alcea flower where even a hot blooded feline can't take his eyes off.
it's a pretty wild ride. and the logo is just, beautiful. <3")

Catherine Forte is a singer-songwriter, musician, and performer. Born into a musical family, she has been writing her own music and performing since the age of twelve. In French, the word for strong is 'forte'. And The French meaning of her name Catherine is pure, or clear. Together, it means \"pure strength\".
Based on that, I decided to go with realistic visual approach to depict strength and maturity, combined with fresh and dynamic animation to give down to earth feels, and the outcome is very satisfying :)

\"Mugen\" means Infinity (無限), dream and fantasy (夢幻) in Japanese language, a deep meaning and philosophy, the owner is definitely great at choosing name for their business and I think it's really beautiful, so I decided to combine Japanese illustration style with Oregon quirky & avant-garde culture and it's well known beautiful diverse landscape into a dreamy & fantastical scene. Surreal with a twist of happiness, a typical scene where you find on a mind blowing anime, with seemingly never ending noodle to represent infinity. A result of translating what the client said: \"Infinity dream and fantasy of noodles. Never stop creating and innovating new recipe\" into a stunning artpiece that customers can enjoy while they eat a bowl of tasty ramen noodle. :)
So if you are Near Portland, Oregon, make sure to visit okay! :)")

Isn't that boring? :p we need to jump out of the boring box!
The restaurant is located on Portland Oregon, which is known for it's white Stag, so I came up with the idea to incorporate Portland, noodle and Japanese vibe into one single logo. A negative space of a stag with noodle horn on abstract Japanese ink wash (Ensō) background will do the work, with mugen kanji strokes to emphasize on Japanese vibe. A lot more Simple iconic and memorable than just bowl and noodle right? :)")

The umbrella shade the rest of the surroundings, but the text \"shade\" still visible even though it's under dark. this perhaps can depict the company aim, to brought out incredible talent out there. even if they are under shade (undiscovered), the company can see and discover their talent and make them shine bright.
