Below are mockups of your Welcome Sign and Bar Sign in your preferred colors, shown in two different font options. Do you have a favorite? I think it would be great to choose one font to carry consistently throughout all of the designs.

Font #2

Bar Sign

Here are three initial concepts I created for your bar sign to help us start narrowing in on a direction. These are meant to be rough starting points, so if none of them feel quite right, I am more than happy to keep exploring and come up with something new!

As you review, here are a few things to consider:

  • Is there any specific wording or phrase you would like included at the top or bottom of the sign?

  • Are there certain colors from your palette that you would like to use for this piece?

  • What are your thoughts on the fonts? I included two different handwritten, calligraphy-style options. I think whatever font we choose for the welcome sign, we should continue to use for all of the other signs :)

  • Do you like the idea of featuring illustrated versions of each cocktail on the sign?

We can also explore cutting the sign into a fun or custom shape if that’s something you would be interested in!

Welcome Sign

Here are two updated versions of the welcome sign you liked from the first round of designs.

I would love your feedback on a few things:

  • Colors – do these feel right to you?

  • Fonts – I added a new hand-drawn style that can give a “watercolor” effect; it is shown in the first image.

  • Stripes – would you prefer a soft, watercolor look like the first image, or cleaner, solid lines like the second?

Below are three ideas I put together for your welcome sign. These are just rough drafts to help us start narrowing down a direction. If none of them feel quite right, I am more than happy to keep brainstorming and come up with something new.

For Idea #1, I included an inspiration photo so you can better see what I am picturing.

A few things to think about as we move forward:

  • Is there any specific wording, information, or a favorite phrase you would like on the sign?

  • Are there any colors from your color palette you are especially drawn to for the welcome sign?

  • What do you think about the fonts? I showed two different handwritten, calligraphy-style options. If you’re not loving either, I can definitely look for something different!
