Schulhaus Tirol visual identity
A custom drawn logo [apparently based on ToY, see comments] is paired with Office Times Mono and Selva Script for the identity of restaurant Schulhaus Tirol. Office Times Mono’s proportional sibling, Office Times Sharp, is used for most information. Words from The Brand Identity:
Located in Austria’s picturesque Ziller Valley, Schulhaus Tirol is a restaurant renowned for its creative interpretation of Tyrolean cuisine. Run by the Geisler family, the restaurant boasts authenticity and a dedication to high standards that not only stands out from noise but speaks to today’s sophisticated tourist.
