Botanical Elegance

Introducing MNML’s brand identity design for Nettare, a vibrant bar, restaurant, and market now open in Chicago’s West Town.

The menu blends Italian and Mediterranean influences with Midwest flair, celebrating local producers from the Great Lakes region. Our visual expression uses botanical collage elements, sophistcated typography (with an Art Nouveau inspired font, Antiga), and the hummingbird to awaken a mystical, intimate dining experience like no other.

Nettare is an italian word meaning "nectar" — a word that evokes feelings of healing and vitality. The restaurant strives to embody this namesake and ensure that you leave feeling better than when you arrived.

““MNML crafted a beautiful brand identity that reflects the essence of our restaurant, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. What really sets MNML apart for me, however, is the superb communication. I never felt unsure of the next step — it made the branding process one of the least stressful parts of our opening. I would be thrilled to work with them again on future projects.””

— Conner O’Byrne, Owner & Operator of Nettare
