Wooden QR plaques for Les Espelmes

The project

For Les Espelmes, a restaurant in Tarragona, we designed and made wooden plaques providing access to its menu via a QR code. Our work covered the design of the pieces, cutting, engraving and finishing.

The plaques have a square outline with rounded corners. The QR code occupies much of the surface, with text beneath it. The pale wood and dark markings create a simple composition focused on access to the menu.

Production began by cutting the pieces from birch wood. We then engraved the QR code and text using our galvanometer laser system. This technology was used for engraving; the source does not specify the system used to cut the pieces.

After engraving, we painted the marked areas and applied varnish. Finally, we removed the paper that had protected the base during the work. This completed the bespoke plaques for Les Espelmes, from design through to finishing.
