With the Corrigan’s, their enterprise is a family affair with Richard’s son Richard Jr leading the charge. After the look and feel for the restaurant was finalised, we worked closely with Richard Jr on the visual approach, strategy for social and the website design and build.
Virginia Park Lodge, Richard’s haven in Cavan, and specifically the Gooseberry Gardens, formed the inspiration for the brand visuals. We created a playful, engaging brand aesthetic that could easily be applied to all elements of the roll-out. The brand purpose ‘serving you the park on a platter’ inspired a suite of elements that could be used in a variety of combinations.
Developing a suite of illustrations and using a bold, retro-futuristic typeface helped create the vibrancy and movement that brings the brand to life. The illustrations and colour palette were inspired by mid-century styles and led to a simple approach to animation that we integrated throughout the website UI.
Great things happen when unbridled, enthusiastic people come together.
