speakeasy
Arcana Lounge is a speakeasy-inspired brand concept I developed to blend classic mystery with a modern, high-end aesthetic. The visual identity centers on a custom wordmark and a signature icon that combines a martini glass with a skeleton key—a direct nod to the "hidden" nature of traditional speakeasies. My goal was to create a brand that feels both exclusive and timeless, leaning into a dark, sophisticated atmosphere.
For this project, I built out a full brand identity system to ensure the concept could live across multiple platforms. This included developing a primary logo and its variations, establishing clear space guidelines, and selecting a typography suite that feels both elegant and bold. To tie everything together, I curated a cohesive color palette designed to evoke the moody, intimate feeling of a midnight lounge.
