Kafe UTU is Singapore’s first African-themed cafe and lounge that celebrates diverse flavours and dishes from the continent. In line with their launch, we were tasked to shoot the restaurant’s interiors, group shots of their signature menu items, their cocktail range, as well as portrait shots of Kafe UTU’s team.
By using monotone tableware, it served to accentuate the vibrant colours and textures of their dishes. As for their cocktail selection, they’re served in curated glassware that highlights the character of each drink. Finally, by incorporating their hand-carved interior design as the backdrop, it pulled together the entire African theme, enhancing the branding and character of Kafe UTU.
