Smoke & Mirrors

Branding, typography

Inspired by English interiors and art noir, I designed the branding suite for Smoke & Mirrors, a craft cocktail lounge and basement speakeasy in Northern VA. The logo design pulls visual elements from the bar's bourbon-heavy menu, namely their cloche-smoked old fashioned, as well as the rich color story used in the bar's interior design: walnut and mahogany, brass fixtures, chocolate leather, sultry teal paint, and pops of burgundy and mustard yellow.
