Olio Studio is a boutique creative agency based in Berkeley, CA that elevates food brands through striking design, thoughtful branding, and mouth-watering photography. Founded and rooted in a passion for food, Olio collaborates closely with chefs, artisan producers, and specialty food brands to craft memorable visual identities and packaging that resonate with consciously-minded consumers.
During my time as a designer, I had the privilege of working on a variety of different projects with the team ranging from menu design, packaging design and brand strategy.
Select works below. Additional work examples and references are available upon request.
Menu Design for Kayah, by Burma Love
I worked with the Olio Studio team to deliver full menu design concepts that showcase the offerings at Kayah - a new addition to the Burma Love restaurant group, located in Thrive City at the Chase Center. We had creative freedom to propose menu form and function, color iterations and iconography that aligned with their existing brand. Deliverables included separate menu designs for dinner, lunch, dessert and wine + spirits.
Packaging Design for Charles Chocolates
Longstanding client Charles Chocolates partnered with the Olio Studio team to bring their new Dubai-style chocolate bar to life. I developed packaging concepts designed to differentiate the new offering while thoughtfully elevating the brand’s existing visual language. A key project highlight was integrating my background in block printing by digitizing original, seamless pattern designs and translating them into refined, contemporary packaging concepts.
