We need a product cataloger for a foodservice company based in Dubai which exclusively import products from Latin America. We would like to see design that put an emphasis on the quality and exclusiveness of the products. The thematic is the origin of the products. The logo attached shows the 4 regions of Latin America, the sea, the land, the highlands, the amazon.. for each products for example seafoods will have fish from the pacific or from the amazon... the crops will have grain like corn for the land...or quinoa from highlands. We want to keep the colors of the logo for the origin of the products. On the right margin or somewhere, we would like to show the altitude of where the product comes from - as well as a map (wikipedia style - minimalist) to highlight the country where it comes from.
I don't believe in pure white page.. i also don't believe in full color.. i want something creative, minimalist, pure, class and which draw the attention on the product rare and far origin.. which makes it interesting..
some nice website we've seen and attached some doc where we got the ideas from..
