Concept Statement:
The Cheers Lounge is a tapas and cocktail lounge that is known for its large drink selection and delicious small plates. The most popular drink on the menu is a bourbon or whiskey sour made with fresh squeezed lemon juice and garnished with an orange slice. When you enter the Cheers Lounge you are greeted with an elegant bar and dining experience that is decorated with gold, green, and other dark features. The dim lighting creates a moody environment for the perfect night out
Archives Advertisement:
The historical piece I chose was a southern comfort advertisement from the 1930s. The ad talks about how to improve your drinks with southern comfort and includes two recipes for a bourbon and whiskey sour. This will be the signature drink at the Cheers lounge and the advertisement images will help inspire the interior feeling of the lounge.
