When asked to design the logo for this restaurant – one of the most loved establishments in all of Mykonos – I knew right off that I didn’t want to do anything predictable: no actual captains, no typical black and white signage.

Collaborating with fellow designer Eva Chalarambopoulou, we based the logo around three colors: the turquoise blue sea, the elephant gray of the island’s rocks and the bright yellow sun.

Each of these elements inspired three illustrations combined into one: the boat, the church atop the mountain and the sun. These bright-yet-subtle images perfectly complement the homey, friendly feel of the restaurant.
