Minded by BrandWorks explored cultural ideologies of youth culture and playfulness as the foundations of Baby Su’s brand strategy and design.

 
 

BRIEF

Following the success of the 2017 Lazy Su collaboration, the client re-engaged Minded by BrandWorks to design a branded interior for their most recent development, Baby Su. Inspired by its sister restaurant and bar, the final creative direction complimented Lazy Su’s original concept highlighting elements of Japanese pop-culture, arcade games, and futuristic icons. Where Lazy Su offered a more refined, seated bar and dining experience, Baby Su caters to a casual grab-and-go market targeting professional and local crowds with a younger, playful aesthetic and tongue-in-cheek brand

SOLUTION

Minded by BrandWorks explored cultural ideologies of youth culture and playfulness as the foundations of Baby Su’s brand strategy and design. Chosen colours, patterns, and textures were selected for their sense of life and dynamism, then dialled up a noisy “look at me” aesthetic. The See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil Lucky Cats give a warm welcome to passers-by and stand in as an identifiable. The Baby Su school exercise book grid pattern was incorporated into both interior ceiling and tile details as well as brand graphics, ensuring visual unity from online, print and the three-dimensional space.

From the streets, little laneways and city arcades comes a new kind of flavour. Distinctly Asian, it’s fast, loud, rebellious, upbeat and confident.
