The client
Samba Kitchen is a Brazilian restaurant in Amsterdam with a unique atmosphere and cuisine. They needed a complete brand identity and website that immediately conveys that atmosphere — warm, inviting and full of life. Restaurants sell an experience, not a menu. That needed to be visible from the logo outwards.
Website
A full-screen design with stunning food photography as the starting point. Animations convey the energy of the restaurant, the reservation button is always visible and the mobile experience is the priority — because most guests search on the go. Built in Webflow for easy management of the menu and calendar.
Result
A website you can almost taste. A significant rise in online reservations, immediate brand recognition and a design that perfectly captures the Brazilian atmosphere of Samba Kitchen. Lightning-fast, mobile-friendly and easy to manage for the team.
Logo
The logo is a bold typographic wordmark in deep forest green with a tambourine as the brand icon — a direct reference to Brazilian samba culture. The gradient background plays with the yellow, green and blue of the Brazilian flag, giving the logo an immediate sense of origin and warmth.
