The graphic profile for the Ekeberg Restaurant in

demonstrates a high degree of detail and contains many pleasing elements. The profile helps communicate the soul and history of the building. The colour scheme harmonises with the architecture and communicates historical modernity. The logo symbol is powerful; the circle combines typical elements from functionalism with a more contemporary feel. The collaboration between a design agency and an interior designer has entailed that the profile has been applied to many elements that the public sees (menus, napkin holders, butter paper). The Ekeberg Restaurant’s graphic profile serves to further stress the brave and impressive nature of the renovation project.
