More About La Pause Parisienne Visual Identity

La Pause Parisienne is a visual identity created for a floating event space in Paris. The letters of the name are formed as tree leaves, and a serif typography with curved leaf shapes gives an elegant and gentle character. The letter U reads as a pause symbol and as an empty space within the word, framed by a crown of leaves. Greenery and plant images surround the logo to strengthen the presence of nature. The identity matches the floral decoration of the renovated 460 square metre venue, which hosts meetings and events by day and by night.

Design Details

Unique Properties
The letters are designed in the form of tree leaves. The U is a symbol of taking a break as well as an empty space within the letters. It is also used as a symbol that offers meaning and is surrounded by a crown of leaves. To reinforce the presence of nature, the logo is surrounded by greenery and images of plants.
Inspiration
The logo is inspired both by nature and by the idea of taking a break. The U of the name is directly inspired by the pause symbol.
Research
It was necessary to be inspired by nature and elements present on the lean to achieve this new identity. Renovated in 2019, the former restaurant Le Quai leaves in its place a 460 m2 space for meetings and events and strives to create a breath of fresh air to event coordinators. Redesigned as a green oasis in the heart of Paris, the floating event space creates a nature-like atmosphere during all four seasons and is available during the day as well as at night.
Challenge
The change of name of the restaurant and the creation of a graphic universe adapted to an existing floral decoration.
Operation and Interaction
It was important that the graphic universe represented the already existing decoration of the barge in order to offer a complete experience of escape for the customer.
Project Duration and Location
The project started in April 2019 and finished in June 2019.
