Hawks is a Sacramento area restaurant. I thought this was an interesting use of Richard Lipton’s Bickham Script. The name/logo uses all lowercase, with two swash characters for the h and k. I love the variant they have used with the rooster sitting on the tail of the swash h. The logo was created by Sheila Buchanan Designs, a Los Angeles design studio that specializes in creations for the restaurant and food industry.
Detail of the menu for the Mother’s Day Brunch 2024. It also uses Bickham Script, here with ornate swash capitals.
Front and back cover of the Hawks Private Dining Guide. The typeface used alongside Bickham Script is Zuzana Licko’s Mrs Eaves in roman small caps and italics.
