The original location’s images:
The first task was to come up with concepts.
First, we had to establish directions that the restaurant could work with and identify with in the long term, and then match names that fit these directions. Then come the visual plans and mood images.
With the help of mood boards, it’s easier to visually imagine the directions we’re thinking in.
After selecting the name (Andrássy Garden) and concept, the final design of the logo and related visual identity began.
The selected direction was a turn-of-the-century atmosphere, with an open grill terrace facing Andrássy Avenue.
fter designing and selecting the logo, final versions were created for the visual world, colors, and fonts.
After the final logo was approved, we started designing the visual world of the terrace.
After the acceptance of the visual plans and furniture, the implementation related to the terrace could begin.
For the grill presentation, we made an art deco-patterned box with adjustable brightness.
With the involvement of industrial climbers, decorations were made, flags were replaced, the grill terrace was covered, and umbrellas were installed.
After the work, we furnished the restaurant with furniture and arranged the tables.
During the terrace implementation, menus, drink menus, and necessary plans and materials for communication were prepared.
Unique illustrations were made for the menus.
