Hotel Kabuki

Client: Two Roads Hospitality
Location: San Francisco, CA
Scope: Menu Design

Round Two for the Kabuki Cocktail menu opted for a simple tri-fold design that would embrace the art of Japanese floral arrangement, Ikebana. Since this was a summer menu, we wanted a shift in the color palette towards bright and playful. The stylization of the flowers would mimic botany illustrations, laid upon cracked floods of watercolor in the background.

Ritz-Carlton Martini Menu

Client: The Ritz Carlton
Location: Nationwide
Scope: Menu Design

Elevating the lounges of the Ritz Carlton meant exploring creative ways to showcase premium spirits while providing some user interaction for the guest. The Martini Menu activation breaks down the steps in ordering a Martini with suggestions on how it can be served, so that every customer gets exactly what they want. The Menus were printed digitally with a matte gold foil + black ink, and a matte coating to increase durability for menu longevity. We will update with IRL images once the printing is complete and these are showcased in Ritz Carlton lounges throughout the country.

 
 
 

 
 

Cenote Brand Identity + Menus

Client: Thompson
Location: San Antonio, TX
Scope: Brand Identity,
Menu Design + QR Code Cards

The name and concept for this Guest & Residence Pool and Bar is a gesture to the cultural heritage of San Antonio and a reference to the natural underground waterways known as Cenotes. The word “Cenote” from the Yucatec Maya word “ts’onot” which means a place with underground water and represents not only a water supply source but a sacred place. Whether guests visit for a refreshing swim or to enjoy a drink with dazzling downtown San Antonio views, the Cenote Pool bar is a hidden oasis awaiting.

 
 
 
 

 
 

The Andaz Napa Valley

Client: The Andaz
Location: Napa, CA
Scope: Menu Design

Streamlining the menu options for guests during the pandemic helped create an ease of use and hospitality to make them feel more comfortable. Each menu for the Food & Beverage outlets was united in typography, color palette and formatting so that guests can easily navigate through the adjusted hours and service at the Andaz. The overall menu design continues to celebrate the indigenous ingredients and flavors of the Napa Valley at the restaurants, bar, and lounge at Andaz Napa.

 
 
 
 
 

 
 

Bar 54

Client: Hyatt Centric
Location: New York, NY
Scope: Menu Design
Design: Soda Back
Photos: Bar 54

The rooftop bar at the Hyatt Centric Times Square needed a polished redesign on their menus + menu covers for this elevated cocktail bar. New screw-post faux leather menus were sourced with the logo embossed in gold foil and the font set for the Brand was enhanced to feel classic yet modern. The multi-page menu incorporates custom water-color illustrations of the house cocktails, and beer/wine & spirits pages that are easy to navigate and clean & concise.

Hotel Kabuki

Client: Two Roads Hospitality
Location: San Francisco, CA
Scope: Cocktail Menu Design

It was such an honor to work with Shel Bourdon and Stephanie Ann Wheeler to design this custom menu for the newly-remodeled bar at Hotel Kabuki. The final concept we landed upon was Japanese Shibori, a manual resist dyeing technique that would be used for spreads of color and textures across the menu.
