People of Greece Food & Drink Architecture The Black Pearl Plate Experiment


Research People of Greece Greek people are recognized for their friendliness and kindness to strangers. Greece is still one of the few places where you may be invited into a local’s home as a guest, or they may wish to take you out and treat you to a banquet. Greece has proven to be a hospitable and wholesome place that lends itself nicely to a restaurant.

Final Branding Specialty Wind Chimes Using ‘kefi’ as our inspiration, which translates to the spirit of joy, we created a special spot in our restaurant where customers can participate in traditional Greek plate smashing. Kyklos reuses the plate shards to create beautiful and unique wind chimes; for sale in our Doro retail space.

These are ethically sourced to provide cost effective packaging without compromising on quality, design and functionality. Our packaging is carefully selected in biodegradable, recyclable or reusable options. Food safe and easy to brand.

Final Branding Envelope & Business Card We wanted to be distinct in our design, we went with a sleek vertical design for the business card and a side flap for our envelope. Our letterhead and envelopes are printed on a 100% post-consumer waste, FSC Certified paper and we also use zero-VOC inks. (The Forest Stewardship Council label ensures that the forest products used for their paper are from responsibly harvested and verified sources). 33

These are connected so you can experience the social Greek way of dining together and making contact and conversation with people. You can even see how the chef prepares your dinner. Connected to the open kitchen is the storage room for dishes, food, dining materials (like cutlery and plates), and retail goods.

Interior Design Terrace Model If you’d like some summer ambiance, the front terrace is ideal for you. Every table in the restaurant gets a number of free plates to smash into a million pieces in a designated area on the terrace. The fragments are collected every night and used to make wind chimes in the retail space. People are always welcome to join the workshop and make their own wind chimes before or after dinner. This platethrowing spectacle will be easily noticeable from the sidewalk when you pass by the restaurant.
