ChefStable Catering
We re-branded a full service catering company in Portland, Oregon: design, colors, patterns, tone of voice and language, positioning, marketing ideas, collateral production.
Voysey
A cocktail bar
We branded, launched and promoted a 50-person cocktail bar located in the subterranean level of Loyal Legion Beer Hall. Voysey is named in homage to the architect by whom the building was inspired and a nod to the "Voysey" building in London. Designed with a chic cocktail crowd in mind, this speakeasy-like space features a creative, signature cocktail menu. Voysey also doubles as a unique pop-up and event venue for the artists in our spirits and cocktail community.
Fills Donuts
In the midst of Covid, we conceptualized, art directed, branded, launched and promoted Fills Donuts, a downtown Portland collaboration between Chef Katherine Benvenuti (Tasty, the Bakery at Bar King, The Rose in Venice) and Chef Leather Storrs (Noble Rot). Fills are seasonal and hand crafted Berliner-styled donuts with sweet and savory fillings. Fills Donuts is opening their second location in the Summer of 2021.
KEX Hotel
We helped conceptualize, position and launch KEX Portland, the second location of a social hotel that originated in Iceland. KEX first started in 2011, when a businessman and a set designer met at an abandoned biscuit factory in a strange corner of Reykjavík while scouting a location for an upcoming film. While the movie never got made, the vision for the set remained and the city’s first social hotel was born. KEX is a design-focused space filled with salvaged materials and pieces from around the world, and a social hotel where people from anywhere can gather to eat great food, hear music, and be inspired.
Dimo’s Apizza
In the midst of Covid, we branded, launched and promoted a New Haven Style Pizza pop up from Chef Doug Miriello (Gjusta, Gjelina). The concept is now a permanent brick and mortar in the central East Side of Portland, Oregon.
Team PDX Tote Bags
When Covid hit, we were the first initiative in Portland to create merchandise to help raise funds for the workers who were impacted by the shuddered restaurant industry. We art directed, produced and sold the bags at all New Seasons Grocery locations and online. We raised over $10,000 which was distributed directly to restaurant workers via a partnership with Family Meal PDX.
Battle Brew Beer
We partnered with a female beer brewer, two breast cancer survivors, a local beer brand called Dirty Pretty, and BurnCycle Spin Studio to create a pink beer in honor of breast cancer awareness month. The program included the beer, a BurnMVMT charity event, a photo shoot with 10 breast cancer survivors and merchandise. Proceeds benefited Fighting Pretty, a non profit whose mission is to help women battling cancer feel strong and beautiful.
Mikkeller Portland
We partnered with the famous Danish brewer, Mikkel Borg Bjergsø to open a temporary Portland pop up location which launched during Portland Beer Week. Prior to Covid, there were plans to create a permanent location in Portland.
School Night
We worked with chef Traci Des Jardins and The Pearl event space in San Francisco’s Dogpatch neighborhood to name, brand, launch and promote a weekday only bar.
The Pearl
We branded, styled, promoted and came up with ongoing marketing initiatives for a premier event space in San Francisco.
