Where Passion and Partnership Meet
Carlo Independent Italian Restaurant
Not every creative partnership begins face-to-face. Sometimes, it starts with a simple, friendly email.
In July 2023, while walking through West Street in Haslemere, we noticed something exciting — a brand new independent Italian restaurant preparing to open its doors. The signage read Carlo’s, and the promise of authentic Italian cooking caught our attention immediately.
We reached out to Carlo with a warm message, offering support across photography, website design and visual branding. At the time, he replied kindly, explaining that a family member was helping with some of these tasks. We wished him all the best and left it there — or so we thought.
Just a few weeks later, Carlo got back in touch. He was ready to meet and wanted to discuss the website in more detail. After sitting down together and learning more about his vision, we were delighted to be chosen to design and build the official Carlo’s Independent Italian Restaurant website.
Since then, what began as a single project has grown into a lasting creative collaboration. Today, Sequoia Studios works closely with Carlo across all aspects of his digital presence. We manage his Facebook, Instagram and TripAdvisor accounts, write his email campaigns and regularly publish blog content on the website to help drive engagement and visibility.
From seasonal menus to local events, wine tastings to weekday offers, we’ve helped build a warm, consistent brand voice and visual identity that reflects the heart of Carlo’s — a place built on family, flavour and community.
It’s been a real pleasure working with Carlo and his team and we’re proud to be part of the journey as the restaurant continues to thrive in the heart of Haslemere.
