Peloponnesos (Greek: Πελοπόννησος, sometime Latinized as Peloponnesus or Anglicized as The Peloponnese) is a large peninsula in Greece, forming the part of the country south of the Isthmus of Corinth.
Its name derives from the Ancient Greek Mythological Hero, 'Pelops', who supposedly conquered the entire region. Of the name, Peloponnesos, 'Pelop' refers to this hero and 'nesos' refers to island, therefore the name means the Island of Pelops. However, Peloponnesos only became a true island with the creation of the Corinthian Canal in 1893. In 2004 Peloponnesos gained a second connection to the mainland, with the completion of the Rio-Antirio bridge.
For this project I was to develop a restaurant, the name and identity (logo, letterhead, business card and envelope), the menus and food listed, describe the interior, coordinate a place setting sample and create the packaging for food they may sell prepackaged in supermarkets or the restaurant.
My restaurant, Peloponnesia, is named for the peninsula of which Greece is a part.
The artwork I used was taken from original ancient greek vases and frescoes and restored in Photoshop.
