Logo Design Brief
Border Grill has been in business in Marquette Michigan for almost 18 years. While we get very good marks in all the relevant social media sites (Yelp, Trip Advisor, etc) two comments that pop up are a) that we aren't "authentic Mexican" and b) that our food is bland. The current brand is very successful, so we don't want to completely overhaul all the locations. Our plan is to recreate one of the locations to a more authentic Mexican menu which will also incorporate much bolder flavors. The attached photos show a color palette that I like for the new brand. You can look at our website (www.bordergrill.net) to see our current logo and get a sense of who we are".
Updates
I don't envision the new logo actually saying Border Grill unless it is very low-key. Thanks, Dan Torres
