What to fix first
Focus on the changes that matter. Keep what makes the logo work.
Redesign the stacked Greek lettermark to improve readability and reduce visual congestion without losing the classic, heritage impression.
Current Greek letter overlay is nearly illegible and risks failing as a recognizable brand icon.
Significantly increases brand recognition and prevents confusion in luxury F&B market.
Slightly increase stroke weight or spacing in the mark to improve clarity at smaller sizes.
Thinness and close overlaps may break down at small scale.
Improves scalability and practical usage, particularly for packaging and digital use.
