Dinner menu and dessert menu redesign
Hi everyone! I have spent much of spring break overhauling my menu design. A quick background - the project was a restaurant based on an art movement. I chose kitsch - "art so bad it's good". In the redesign I kept the idea of the Kitsch'n, but took out the artists and instead incorporated the idea of the Twilight Zone original tv series, that I feel has a kitsch feel to it. I also changed the layout to a more traditional design, rather than the original complicated fold. The first three are the cover, inside and back of the dinner menu. The second three are the cover, inside and back of the dessert menu (surreal monster milkshakes). All of the item names and images in both menus are the names of episodes of the show, or references to them. Feedback welcome!

Jenn - I see a lot of work here! Clever name. So... since the Twilight Zone was a b/w show, and your covers very much celebrate that, with limited color I am thinking the inside might need to follow the same concept. Have you tried limited color on the inside? Especially the dinner menu inside... all that color might create a unity problem? Also... I wondering if you need to get closer to the actual typography of the show's title. Why not?
ReplyDeleteThis menu is SO cool!!!!! I am blown away by the work that went into each page/spread. I think on the last section where you have the trivia night - below the television, that little call of action beginning with "starting July 4th" could probably be a little bigger in point size. For the actual menu items I think you could have a more "twilight zone" type for the headings and keep your sans serif for your descriptions.
