Oak & Ember

I worked with Oak & Ember, a craft BBQ restaurant based in Ontario, California, to build a full brand identity from the ground up. From naming and logo design to signage, menus, and environmental branding, I created a system that captures the smoke, warmth, and craftsmanship at the heart of their food. The goal was to strike a balance between modern and familiar—something bold enough to stand out but rooted enough to feel like it’s always been there. The result is a brand that feels confident, approachable, and perfectly seasoned for its space.
