Tibidabo is a mountain overlooking Barcelona, Spain. At 512 metres (1,680 ft), it is the tallest mountain in the Serra de Collserola. Rising sharply to the north-west, it affords spectacular views over the city and the surrounding coastline.
This was the brief for the logo design that Luis Velasco, owner of the mediterranean food restaurant, asked me. Tibidabo is the place where he borned. Design the skyline from Tibidabo was exciting and the right idea to explane in graphic the essence of this word. Tapas, sangria and paella now are part of Playa guiones nights.

The project for Il Basilico took me a month of details on a big piece of pochote wood. I started redesigning the logo to give a little bit of italian way with colors and putting two little basilico leafs. Chandy asked me a double side wood sign for his Italian restaurant in Playa Guiones to give it more visibility and value. I’m starving now, I need a pizza.
