Le Supernova Restaurant

Le Supernova Restaurant.

Bringing architecture to life in all its forms: this idea lies at the heart of our practices. Creating and operating a restaurant—the ultimate place of conviviality—is a perfect illustration of this.

Integrated into its context and designed to be welcoming, this rooftop restaurant offers a breathtaking view of the Belledonne mountain range. It was conceived as a place to gather, whether for lunch or after work.

Entirely managed by our entity Walter Live, Le Supernova is the result of a long-standing collaboration with Chef Alexandre Henry, who leads the kitchen.

The restaurant’s communication and graphic identity were also designed by our in-house graphic design and communication teams.

A flawless identity...

Present from the very first sketches of the project, our communication teams implemented a comprehensive communication plan to effectively define the restaurant’s key directions and the actions to be taken. Graphic guidelines, editorial line, events, website, social media strategy and management — everything was carefully designed to support the restaurant’s opening and bring it to life day after day.

Visual identity

At Le Supernova, the identity evolves with the seasons and the chef’s menu! Seasonal menus are adorned with original colors and patterns for each time of year. On the bar side, the afterwork menu features illustrations showcasing bartender Rui Serra’s original creations: fifteen bold and energetic graphic designs that reflect the spirit of the cocktails.

A true signature of the place, these illustrations are also featured on the goodies available in the Supernova shop.

Signage

Halfway between architecture and graphic identity, the signage highlights access points, circulation paths, and emphasizes the restaurant’s shared spaces. Present from the parking area all the way into the interior, it ensures a smooth experience for guests. Integrated and fully aligned with the overall identity, it guides and informs without ever straying from the venue’s unique graphic language.

Web

Grounded… and Digital : Le Supernova also expands through a responsive digital platform developed by our entity. As a true extension of the restaurant, the website reflects the Supernova universe. It allows guests to explore the menu, book a table, and even order dishes and meal options online.
