Restaurants & Urban Developers

For the past 12 years, we’ve worked with placemakers to further missions, change landscapes, and design beautiful brands and websites for urban development projects of all styles and scales. The brands we’ve created have helped our clients not only attract residents, but turn spaces into places.

Wired

Wired is the fourth restaurant brand we’ve created for the team at Archipelago Investments. Over the past 10 years, we’ve provided a visual look and feel for their projects: everything from mixed-use residential to commercial real estate and restaurants.

Amherst Oyster Bar

Our brand for Amherst Oyster Bar welcomes guests to dine by honoring classic East Coast seafood and celebrating the lore of the oyster with fresh new energy.

Bistro Agnes

The Bistro Agnes brand takes inspiration from historic French lettering found on street signs and in print to evoke a sense of nostalgia and delight.

Scott Edwards Architecture

Our strategy for the SEA brand focused on defining and celebrating their differentiators, and clarifying their driving ethos, “People First, Design Forward.”

School Night

Inspired by the idea of the weeknight as a daring time to sneak out and have a good time, our brand concept grants permission to have fun on a School Night.

Protocol

We brought bold artwork and enticing typography to the front of this bar brand, to create an immersive experience that's fit for a new standard of cocktail.

Eleven East Pleasant

Iconography alludes to the era of Tesla and Edison in a residential brand uniting the past and future of Amherst’s most sustainable address to call home.

Patio

Every hour is happy hour when you're outside with friends. We united the chalk art of childhood with custom illustrations and tropical vibes to bring this playful bar concept to life.

26 Spring

Contemporary meets traditional at 26 Spring—a full brick facade and Amherst's first solar rooftop pair with a playful type system and a touch of early 20th century elegance.

One East Pleasant

For over 10 years, we’ve worked with Archipelago Investments to brand their properties, helping them transform the landscape of Amherst, Massachusetts into a more walkable, sustainable, and dynamic community.

“Just had our soft opening last night! This brand is one of the most fun and engaging you’ve designed for us. The space is the heart of Downtown, and the brand elevates that spot to another level. ”
