Today is
World Cocktail Day! ...so what better day than to show you this amazing cocktail menu, which is a stunning piece of paper engineering:
This menu for
Scarfes Bar is a highly memorable and interactive piece, featuring 14 music-inspired cocktails.
The menu was illustrated by
Gerald Scarfe and based around a Victorian toy theatre with a back drop and moveable wings depicting an empty Scarfes bar. Different types of music are listed on tabs on both sides.
As you pull a tab that relates to a particular genres, so a musician or exponent of that genre glides across the stage into the bar – and the appropriate cocktails are revealed, as you can see below...
The size of the menu is 175x230mm (plus the 10mm tab). The menu is constructed from paper covered over board and each of the menu cards is paper mounted onto our
Sumo Black 1mm thick board and the menu pages are held by just four brass binding posts which move along punched slots.
Designed is by
Rivington Bye who work with many premium brands, principally in the hospitality sector.
Printing and production is by Fenton Smith at
PrintSmith and I can't stress just how well produced this construction is, it really is superb.
