Le Bouchon Alsacien, Lyon
A new sign for Le Bouchon Alsacien, the restaurant run by Jacky and Fred, new owners of the former Cazenove in Lyon’s 6th district.
The exterior now features a glass gilding panel combining engraving and gold leaf gilding (manufactured by Giusto Manetti Battiloro). The deep blue background highlights a swirl of shimmering letters, creating a classic and luminous result that pays tribute to Lyon’s and Alsace’s heritage.
Inside, a lime fresco bears the owners’ tribute phrase, “the cellar of my father, the dishes of my mother” alongside other hand-painted elements that extend the artisanal touch throughout the space.
The typefaces in use are Albuquerque by Ornamental & Title Type, LHF Thick and Thin Sans by Thomas Kennedy of Letterhead Fonts, Gandur New by Blackletra, and Drafter by Double Dagger.
Design and execution by C’est par là.
