SELENE POP-UP




Background

Visual identity for Selene, a Mediterranean food pop-up hosted by Phoebe Moon at Newbarns Brewery. Developed in collaboration with Phoebe Moon, Adam Hepburn and Maddy Crowther to define the visual direction and printed assets.


System

The identity pairs loose, unpolished handwriting with quiet serif typography to reflect an honest and deliberate aesthetic. Visual language integrates black and white process photography of food preparation and manual work. The framework is informed by archival menu structures, soft hospitality and hand-done details to create a stripped-back system.


Production

Execution of a cohesive set of printed and digital assets including menus, posters and social layouts. The final output establishes a personal, lived-in tone that coordinates across multiple touchpoints. Designed as an understated identity that mirrors the specific care of the culinary experience.
