PADRINOS
TRADITION WITH A CONTEMPORARY FLAVOR.
Year
2025
The logo draws from the original 1930 Hermanos Padrino's emblem, infused with a modern twist that echoes Cuban flair. This influence stems from early 20th-century films, cigar boxes, tourism posters, and signage. We modernized these nostalgic elements while retaining their Cuban essence. Hospitality flows in Padrino’s genes, evident in our use of halftone-colored family photographs from Cuba to capture the brand's culture. These evocative images infuse every aspect of Padrino’s identity. Hand-drawn illustrations unique to Padrino’s, alongside resort-style colors and layered ancestral images, form an integral part of the identity.
