The area of Warradale was largely farming land before the hotel existed. The identity for the Warradale Hotel is derived from the idea of found objects during excavation - rusty sheet metal, and old pieces of timber carved into abstract shapes. Through the design of several typefaces based on this idea there is a richness of visual flavour and a connection with the past. In addition to the logo, the 'Chef's Tales' series was developed for the Bistro, depicting stories that might be told in the kitchen during food preparation and included common sayings like 'into the fire', or 'slice and dice', or 'absolute corker'.
