Don Quinto
Branding, Menu Design, Photography & Social Media
Concept
Don Quinto was created as a modern Mexican bistro that honors tradition while presenting it through a contemporary lens.
Inspired by the richness of Mexican culture, gastronomy, and craftsmanship, the brand combines breakfast, garnachas, artisanal bakery, signature drinks, and a vibrant social atmosphere in a single destination.
The concept was developed around the idea of preserving authentic flavors while creating an elevated and memorable dining experience. Don Quinto is warm, colorful, welcoming, and deeply rooted in Mexican heritage.
Branding Development
The branding was designed to reflect both tradition and modernity.
The visual identity combines a strong typographic system with a symbolic icon inspired by pre-Hispanic Mexican iconography, representing heritage, culture, and continuity.
The color palette was carefully selected to create a vibrant yet sophisticated personality:
* Turquoise: freshness, energy, and modernity.
* Mustard Gold: tradition, warmth, and authenticity.
* Coral Pink: creativity, personality, and hospitality.
* Soft Yellow: optimism and approachability.
The result is a recognizable and versatile identity that can be applied across signage, uniforms, packaging, menus, and digital platforms.
Menu Design

The objective was to create an experience that allows customers to easily navigate the menu while showcasing the restaurant’s personality.
The design incorporates:
* Custom photography
* Strategic color coding by category
* Visual hierarchy for readability
* Branded graphic elements inspired by Mexican patterns

Every section was created to enhance the customer experience while increasing product visibility and sales opportunities.
