Winner: Bullseye Creative
Nick’s Jr. Building Graphics: How do you turn a Mexican restaurant/gift shop into a funky burger & gyro diner with nothing more than paint and graphics? That was our design challenge, and we sunk our teeth right into this meaty mission. We took the new shop’s name, “Nick’s Jr. Burgers & Gyros,” and created a devilish cow character out of the exterior window shapes (making clever use of the distinctly southwest arched window frames). Using bright red/black/white colors and bold graphics, the whole building was transformed into the Nick’s Jr. character. Inside, diners line up against a white wall that we plastered with high-impact graphics and phrases. Deliciously creative! Double-click on the image above to view more photos.
