The Brief

Following the brand refresh of the StFX Student's Union, the decision was made to refresh the identity of the Golden X Inn, StFX’s student-run campus bar.


The Process

As always, my process for creating something new begins with looking at what already exists. Here’s the pre-refresh Golden X Inn logo.

Identity Modernization

The refreshed visual identity retains the previous “X” symbol, and the slang-term for the Golden X Inn “The Inn”. The logo also incorporates a similar gradient as the refreshed StFX Students’ Union logo, to further align the brand identity of the Union and its subsidiaries.

StFX University’s main emblem is itself a golden X, and thus having a golden X being the symbol for the campus meeting place is a no brainer.

In early 2016, Instagram was still taking off. Our efforts were mostly focused on “facebook events”, though we began to increase our efforts on Instagram as the year progressed.

Menu Refresh

As a part of the Golden X Inn’s rebrand, I refreshed its dinner menu. The aim was to maintain the new black and gold style, while ensuring that the menu was clear, and easy to read. The menus were printed and kept inside leather cases which were branded with an impression of the Inn logo.
