The Old War Office building in London’s historic Whitehall district was recently restored and turned into a complex, Raffles London, holding a luxury hotel, residences, bars and restaurants. For two of the gastronomic spaces, Mauro Colagreco’s restaurant and Mauro’s Table, both headed by the renowned Argentinian chef, the designers of Greenspace chose the typeface Amster (Francisco Gálvez, PampaType) to compose the headlines of the menus, following “its classic yet contemporary feel.”

Mauro’s Table in particular “offers an intimate tasting experience where traditional menus are replaced by keepsake cards, featuring beautifully crafted botanical illustrations”.

  1. The grot used alongside Amster is 1906, a custom typeface family in four styles commissioned by Greenspace from Colophon for the identity of The OWO.
