Two Spoons Small Batch Kitchen

Project Details

Two Spoons is an artisan kitchen in Boulder that specializes in house-made soups and gelato. The primary product available at any given time is determined by the season (mostly soup in the winter and mostly gelato in the warmer months) and the availability of fresh ingredients.

Image Details

The primary logomark is a literal take on the name, with the juxtaposition of the two spoons representing the seasonal approach to the menu.

The logo and window signage were silkscreened and touched up by hand to give the storefront an authentic touch

Window treatments were designed to inform the heavy foot traffic outside about everything that is available in the small space.

In-store wall menus put the product front and center in the small space.

Elements of the menu are used on hot and cold cases throughout the store to provide more information about products.

To-Go Menu

Spoons, used sparingly throughout the interior, reinforce the name and branding elements.
