a fictional brand casebecause why not?

Botté

A made-up wine bar for good wine, long nights and that one glass that somehow turned into a bottle.

Client
Fictional: playing my own client
What I made
Logo, brand identity, menu and illustrations
Style
Hand-made, bold and a little imperfect

the problem?

Wine bars look alike.

  • burgundy
  • grapes
  • fancy serifs

so I went the other way

No burgundy, no posh fuss and definitely not too neat. Instead: a hand-made logo, bold colours and imperfect illustrations.

The problem? Wine bars look alike: burgundy, grapes and fancy serifs crossed out

from logo to menu

Botté was born!!

  • Brand identity
  • Menu
  • Illustrations

from made up to made real

How fun is it, playing your own client. And secretly a great excuse to make exactly what I felt like. Now I mostly want to open Botté for real.
