Wandering Barman is my local bar. I found them when I first moved to New York and they gave me a job on the canning line when I needed cash for ridiculous NYC rent.

Their existing branding had a beautifully simple bauhaus-inspired logo of a hand clutching a barspoon that originally drew me to them.

Although I didn’t create the initial logo or brand, I happily ran with the opportunity they gave me to turn what they already had up to 11.

HQ’d in Bushwick, Wandering Barman operates as a coffee bar, taproom, and RTD cocktail brand offering high quality cocktails at affordable prices on the go. WBM is a perfect example of what people love about Bushwick. It’s lowkey but high-quality, dark and gritty but warmed with neon, filled with people of all backgrounds at any time of day.

I attempted to bring the energy of the products, space, and environment into the brand, web design, and photography.
