Ruyi Dim Dong
Ruyi Dim Dong is a brand identity for a bakery. The design links ancient pastry traditions with European bread making. The logo is based on two Eastern motifs, the unfurling scroll and the partly opened gift box. The right stroke of the character Ru becomes a silk scroll, a sign of heritage. The character Yi loses its left radical, leaving the component Li, which resembles a gift being opened. A pine needle motif appears on seals and belly bands, printed on sustainable materials. Gift boxes present the pastries as cultural souvenirs of the city.
