Grill House

Today I need to finish their TV menu and then start thinking about the designs for the space.
Here is how the current menu looks like (ones that they already have):

The new TV menu according to the owner needs to look clean, fresh & look like a collage so it reads horizontally across and seem connected to each other in some way.
So these are some inspirations I’ve gathered:

First Iteration TV Menu

Here is how the new one looks like:

Second Iteration

Today, I am going to make changes to the first one.
Some new menu items were given to me and also the owner wants some changes to the design:
  1. It needs to feel less fast-foodish so more abstract with images and more luxurious vibe.
  2. The fonts can be larger to be more readable.
Thus, Today, I am going to look up some images that are from Yatzer (an interior design website) to take some inspiration with their interior decorations (for example like a seashell on a wall for seafood vibe

Here is how it turned out:

Now, I am going to tweak them a bit.
Here are some changes overall I made to the menu thus far:

Interior Design

Then, I spent some time experimenting with the interior design of the space starting with the main walkway:

Image sources from various websites on the Internet (Crate&Barrel, Yatzer, etc.)

Physical Menu

Today, I am going to work on that.

The physical menu.

Currently, it looks like this:

I don’t know the size of this menu above but I like how it looks like a book which I haven’t designed in a while.

Just looking at it though, it has many pages.

I wonder if I could reduce the number of pages for a quick-read vibe.

Here is where I am with the menu:

Just a little bit of front and the back in progress.

For the rest of the menu-item pages, I can definitely copy the layouts done for the other restaurant (BYG) which all had horizontal screens.

Mobile App Ad

As I was working on the back cover of the paper menu, we decided to use that page to advertise the mobile app that is coming out. Here are some layouts I created:

Paper Menu

Paper menu again! Today, I am going to finish the tabloid paper menu for this restaurant which currently looks like this:

I just gotta play with the spacing a bit and I am good to go.

With menu, I like how it turned out pretty well so far just by moving different sections from the other format of the paper menu (the booklet one).

Because I designed the mobile app ad for the paper menu, I am curious if I could do that as well here.

Paper Menu

Here is how the paper menu, the booklet format, looks like right now:

I’m going to spend like 10 minutes checking for spacing and things of that nature and then tweak the back page a bit with the current mobile app we have so replacing the screen, icons, etc.

Looking at the above screen right now, the page 5 feels a bit empty so I might make images a bit larger or something.
