The Hollybush Bar & Restaurant: Brand Identity & Photography
The brief
A well-established local bar and restaurant with genuine regulars, and a brand that no longer matched how the venue felt in person. The photography, the menus and the visual identity were doing nothing to bring in anyone who had not already been recommended it by word of mouth.
The build
Identity work and photography built around the same thing: heritage and quality, never a generic “trendy bar” look that could belong to any venue on any high street. That meant shooting the space and the food the way regulars would describe it, then carrying that tone through the logo, menus and print materials, so a first-time visitor’s expectations match what they get when they walk in.
The result
A brand that reads as established instead of newly rebranded. The goal was never to reinvent The Hollybush, it was to make sure everything printed and photographed looked like the venue people already loved.
