Signs and tabletop accessories for Milwaukee

The project

Ahead of its opening in Xàtiva, Milwaukee wanted to give its brand a prominent role. Archicercle made a range of elements for the restaurant: interior and façade signs, napkin holders, burger packaging and a bill presentation box.

The commission brought Milwaukee’s identity into different scales and stages of service, from the façade and interior decoration to tabletop objects and burger presentation. Archicercle’s documented contribution was the making of these pieces.

The napkin holder brings several functions together in one object. Alongside the space for napkins, it includes a compartment for sauces and an area painted with chalkboard paint, intended for writing a table number or marking a reservation. The Milwaukee name sits at the top of the piece.

The napkin holder was made from plywood using laser cutting and engraving. The chalkboard area was combined with a food-safe oil finish. These materials and processes relate to the napkin holder; the wider commission also included the signs, packaging and bill presentation box.
