Hotopia is a restaurant that serves one of the best Szechuan cuisines in downtown Toronto. We researched Sichuan culture before we start this project. Szechuan dialect is one of the inspirations. Just like the Szechuan food, Szechuan dialect is very "hot" and "spicy" too. We used some Szechuan dialect characters and words to support our illustration concept and turned out they perfectly melted as one whole artwork.
