Branding | Graphic Design

We value our ongoing partnership with the owners of Central Illinois Bakehouse and their affiliated businesses—Martinelli’s, Pekara, and Prairie Fruit Farms. Working closely with their dedicated team, we refreshed their logo and brand identity, creating a more cohesive and intentional design while maintaining its familiar appeal within the community.

We also redesigned their bread packaging, making sure the new branding was smoothly integrated to clearly distinguish each bread variety. This updated look ensures Central Illinois Bakehouse stands out in stores and at farmers markets, reflecting their commitment to quality and artisan baking traditions.

Branding

The original Central Illinois Bakehouse logo featured a circle badge with a bread illustration and a blue and yellow color scheme. We wanted to preserve the essence of these colors, so we updated them with modern tones. Swapping the bread illustration for their iconic wheat, we created a more text-focused logo, available in both horizontal and stacked versions for flexibility across applications.

In addition to the new logo, we designed a variety of brand elements, including “Pure Artisan Baking” and “Made with Love” stamps, for use on packaging, social media, signage, and more. These additions enhance the brand’s presence, ensuring a cohesive and recognizable identity across all platforms.
