Sawyer

Background

We were honored to help with the brand strategy for this James Beard-nominated restaurant by chef/owner Mitch Meyers.

Scope

  • Branding
  • Custom Typography
  • Illustration
  • Naming + Messaging
  • Web Design + Development

The name and visual identity were inspired by the lumber and carpentry history of Ballard, specifically the historic building that Sawyer calls home.

The Sawyer website is built on a custom WordPress platform and features a menu plugin (built by our team) that allows the staff to edit both their printed and web-based menu content in one place.

We also had the opportunity to design the exterior signage for the restaurant, including a custom fabricated “blade” sign that features the Sawyer beaver.
