Janitor’s Closet
Branding, Menu Design, Illustration
2019
  • Janitor’s Closet was a speakeasy in the lower level of Fieldhouse Jones, a boutique Chicago hotel. The bar featured vintage cleaning equipment as decor in homage to its history as a custodial supply room within a bygone dairy depot. To complement the interior aesthetic, I created a brand that feels both retro and refined through its unique menu substrates and playful typography. The identity system was applied to various print collateral, including seasonal food and drink menus, a specials card, barkeep rags, and promotional materials.
