The Vestry Café

The Vestry was created as an upmarket café for daytime dining (breakfast and lunch) and was the ‘little brother’ to Saphyre a fine dining restaurant also located in the former Ulsterville Church. Both businesses were created by Kris Turnbull who also owns the internationally successful interior design business – Kris Turnbull Studios which is also located at the former Ulsterville Church address. The menu, strap-lines, quips (tone of voice) and styling of The Vestry lends much to its situation of it being the actual old Vestry of the former church. The brand guidelines that were set from the outset were to provide a visual link to Saphyre and Kris Turnbull Studios brand identities so it looked that it was part of a group of companies but had its own unique look and feel. Once we created The Vestry brand identity, we developed its own brand guidelines for a vast range of applications which included advertising, POS, packaging and menus.
