My contribution

Design contribution within a multidisciplinary team

01
Familiarity meets a fresh perspective.

The project reimagined IHOP’s identity while retaining the familiarity that has made it a longstanding presence in the restaurant industry.

The opportunity was to modernize the brand without losing its warmth, accessibility, or recognition.

02
One cohesive visual system.

As part of a multidisciplinary team, I contributed to the evolution of the logo, visual language, and graphic standards.

Typography, graphics, color applications, and guidelines create a consistent framework across environments, digital platforms, and marketing touchpoints.
