Hand-rendered preliminary logo designs
for French bakery/restaurant Chez Thuries location in West Los
Angeles/Beverly Hills, California. These early designs covered a lot of
ground, from traditional to modern, and were intended to ellicit some
sense of direction from the client as to style. But there were a
lot of cooks in the Chez Thuries kitchen, so to speak–several
decision-makers spread between three cities on two continents. That I
knew of! I was paid for the roughs all right, long ago, but I never
learned my client’s thoughts on these designs and, sadly, it seems the
restaurant never opened. I would like to have seen this project through
to completion.
