Designed by David Collins Studio, Bassoon at Corinthia Hotel is a London destination bar with attitude. Inspired by the hybrid nature of jazz music, the logotype is an energetic assemblage of letterforms. The menu is brought to life with a suite of illustrations by Italian artist Jonathan Calugi. Mono-line drawings are punctuated by bold shapes, evoking influences of Picasso’s single fluid lines and Matisse’s bold cut-outs. They capture the spirit of the 1930s in a very modern way. Coincidentally, Jonathan Calugi’s grandfather designed carnival parade wagons in New Orleans!
