Questions About This Template
While the Azulejo Blue template is designed around traditional Portuguese cobalt blues, you can easily adjust the hex codes to your own brand palette. Keeping the high contrast between dark borders and a light background is recommended for the tile effect.
The single-column layout is best for curated, concise menus such as a focused dinner or tasting menu. If you have an extensive list of items, you might need to span the design across multiple pages.
The azulejo tile borders look exceptionally beautiful on lightly textured, uncoated paper, which mimics the tactile feel of actual ceramics. We recommend using a high-quality, heavy cardstock in a natural white finish.
This template thrives on its classic, decorative typography and ornate borders, so we recommend minimizing food photography. If you must include images, a dedicated full-page insert is best so as not to clash with the tile design.
Yes, Crimson Text features extensive language support. It is perfectly suited for menus that include Portuguese names, accents, or traditional Iberian culinary terms.
