I worked on this project in collaboration with a branding agency. The agency provided a moodboard and design of dish service agreed with the customer. It became the starting point in the development of the character. There were also several online and offline meetings with the customer to clarify the brief and vision of the final result.
In the next step, I made several sketches in different styles. The customer assembled a focus group, which selected the most relevant sketch. It formed the basis of the final version of the character. Two more versions with a wine horn were created at the additional request of the customer at the end of the project.
