Maison des épices
01 — Overview

A family grocery in Kenitra, since 1942.

Hadj Farid, Dar attawabil, the house of spices, wants a modern image that still respects its local roots and neighbourhood values.

Rejuvenating the brand, so the shop becomes a house that lasts and carries on to the next generations.

02 — Research

Starting from the shop.

Preserving the authenticity of the house: modernising it without distorting it, or giving in to the codes of a trendy urban aesthetic.

03 — Identity

A portrait seal and the colours of the counter.

The logo routes start from the portrait, treated as a seal. The palette comes from the spices themselves, around a bold orange.

The idea: a sign like the ones on 1940s spice and oil houses. I take their roundel, with the shop’s founding date, and it becomes the new identity. The colours stay very organic.

The seal, on the jar and on the shop sign.
