Salt House Collateral
Salt House is one of our favorite places to celebrate in the city. We like to sit upstairs, order cocktails and a shellfish platter to share, and watch everyone talking down below. Their design details are charming.
Hand-stamped coasters cut from corrugated cardboard.
Vintage playing cards used as coat-check numbers.
Seafood shipping tags as business cards.
I love it when businesses find clever ways to distinguish themselves without impacting the bottom line adversely. Smart.
Also, when you go get delicious homemade pastries + Ritual coffee in the morning, they will wrap your scone in brown paper and twine.
This is how brands become legends. I love, love, love it when you come across a place that does the littlest and most memorable things.
These are fantastic. Some ingenious work from the creative team, or possibly one glass of wine too many! But these designs are great.
It looks fabulous. I love those sort of design details: they are the sort of thing you remember for ever
You’ve gotta love a restaurant that can roll with the punches (read the bad press – pure awesome in internet form).
I assume you were celebrating the launch of TypeKit? Congratulations, Masons!

Makes me laugh. I know, it’s probably NOT supposed to do that, but it does. Because I’m immature and unsophisticated, that’s why.
Love the details and the vintage playing cards? Swoon!
