Rebel Hotel Group approached UpSpring to find creative and strategic harmony between two established brands: an existing hotel property and its newly integrated restaurant brand. UpSpring designed a narrative and brand system that captures the hotel’s iconic Life Magazine namesake and the importance of “life” through Greek mythology and cultural symbolism. The finished branding includes juxtaposition of Greek-meets-Americana and old-world nostalgia, combined with modern experiences, depicted across the logo, signage, key cards, room decor, and other touch points during the guest experience.
