Your next steps

What to fix first

Focus on the changes that matter. Keep what makes the logo work.

1

Increase script font weight or stroke contrast for 'Ristorante' for improved legibility at smaller sizes.

High priority Low effort

Current script weight may disappear in favicon, embroidery, or print uses.

Ensures usability across all applications and scales.

2

Develop a simplified secondary version using only the monogram or the MASSA wordmark for small-scale uses.

Medium priority Medium effort

Primary lockup is too detailed for small spaces.

Enhances brand flexibility for digital and print touchpoints.

3

Test high-contrast one-color variation for all logo elements.

Medium priority Low effort

Current palette may not translate with full clarity to mono applications.

Ensures print, merchandise, and cost-effective production adaptability.
