Trattoria Elva

Elva Logo

Trattoria Elva is a neighbourhood restaurant that combines Italian tradition with a relaxed Bondi buzz.

As an eastern suburbs institution Elva is renowned for their handmade pasta dishes, however inspired by the client's success at sister venue Vacanza, they wanted to extend their offering to takeaway pizza, and breathe in fresh life into the former osteria.

With its welcoming and familiar atmosphere, Trattoria Elva's energy captures those in the know.

Inspired by some of the more bombastic inner-city venues, we took Elva to a place that few Bondi establishments had been before. Drawing from authentic trattorias of yesteryear, the mark takes cues from historic shopfront signage and the brand colours were born from the greens and oranges of motorsport and the lush mediterranean.

Much like a pizza dough, the Elva mark can be stretched and adapted to fit any application. With its bespoke lettering and colour palette, each variation of the logo still feels consistent yet distinct – even when pulled, rolled or kneaded.
