Design Highlights
Simulated Pegboard Grid
A uniform dot-matrix pattern overlaid on the background creates the convincing illusion of a perforated workshop board.
Kraft Paper Texture
The background utilizes a warm, organic #D4A76A hue that mimics the look of recycled paper or cardboard packaging.
Mid-Century Accents
Specific use of #FF6B35 Orange and #44BBA4 Turquoise evokes the classic colour palette of the 1950s and 60s.
Soft-Geometry Typography
Headings use Fredoka One, a font with rounded corners that complements the circular peg dots rather than clashing with sharp edges.
Tab-Style Sectioning
Menu categories are separated by coloured blocks resembling physical index tabs or tape labels.
Questions About This Template
Yes, but you should disable the background colour layer in the editor first. Printing the digital kraft colour onto physical kraft paper will result in a muddy appearance; printing on white paper preserves the intended look.
The pegboard dot grid serves as the structural background image. While you cannot move individual dots, you can adjust the opacity or overlay distinct elements on top of it without breaking the pattern.
The rounded 'Fredoka One' is reserved for headers to maintain the bubbly, retro vibe. For item descriptions and allergen info, the template uses 'Cabin', which is much cleaner and easier to read at small sizes.
Absolutely. While the default colors are chosen for a specific mid-century look, you can swap the tab and font colors to match your brand branding while keeping the kraft pegboard background.
Due to the busy grid background, deep-etched (background-removed) images or photos cropped into circles work best. Large rectangular photos may clash with the underlying dot pattern.
