Tucked along the edge of Platte Street sits a classy, yet affable little cocktail bar created to transport guests to a soirée hosted by one of Denver’s most beloved socialites. We worked with the Room for Milly team to develop a story where the lines of fiction and reality blur, creating a series of detailed, personal, and charming touchpoints throughout the entire experience.

Milly Parker was a gravitational force. When she was in town, everyone knew it. When she was in a room, she filled it. When she told a story, they listened in awe. The name, Room for Milly, was born of the Dorothy Parker quote, “All I need is room enough to lay a hat and a few friends.” To Milly, the only thing more thrilling than traveling the world was to relate her stories, often embellished, to her people. Her room, which was more of a salon, was the only place she allowed herself to slow down, sit still, and enjoy an evening with those that you love.

Milly traveled lightly, but loved deeply. Our symbol, a pair of dancing Brazilian ruby hummingbirds, is the talisman she carried, which was given to her by Mururi during her travels along the border between Peru and Brazil. It is said to bring enjoyment of life, lightness of being, and resilience, but Milly always suspected Mururi hinted at a deeper meaning—the power of two souls intertwined.

The illustration style is reminiscent of hastily-inked artifacts within a travel journal. They are intentionally messy, intimate, and immediate—foils to the otherwise elegant treatment of the brand.

The cocktail menu is classically simple, but full of color. The cover is composed of light green leather and embellished with gold foil and an orange tassel.

Teeny tiny Patagonia retailer locations from East of West.

Run your finger 440 miles across the state on a map and you get a sense of how wildly diverse Tennessee is. From the heights of the Tennessee Wall to the shallow swamps of Reelfoot, there’s a lot to unpack everywhere and in between. As Patagonia looked east from their west coast home to a new one in Nashville’s Gulch, we helped them introduce themselves by creating a book that celebrated Tennesseans committed to protecting this beautiful state with the same amount elbow grease and can-do spirit worthy of the place that answers to the name volunteer state. The name “East of West” speaks to telling the story of West to East Tennessee and everywhere in between.

For this little book, we could not have pulled it together without the generosity of our friends. To climber and storyteller Cody Averbeck, Sarah Bellos of Stony Creek Colors, kayaking legend Eric Jackson, Hendersonville’s Batey Farm and Hill, fly guide M.E. Sorci, Gary Cantrell and his friend “Laz Lake,” Walk Bike Nashville’s Nora Kern, Susannah Fotopulos of Plant the Seed, Nashville Food Project’s Tallu Schuyler Quinn, Diana Andrew of Urban Green Lab, illustrator Matt Sharer, the tag team at New Hat and outdoor shopkeep Allen Doty, thank you for spending your day with us. Lastly, a tip of the cap to the team that helped pull it together. Please do check out the talented team below.

Tembo is a real estate investment firm with a rare trait: patience. Gentle, judicious and family centered, Tembo focuses on growing and cultivating properties — investing in high quality assets that enhance the communities in which they reside.

The name Tembo, which means “Elephant” in Swahili, is a nod to the Kaplan family’s South African roots. Imposing, yet gentle, the elephant symbolizes the company’s patient and dignified approach to real estate investment and their belief that every property isn’t just an asset, it’s an addition to their family.

Tembo’s symbol communicates the meaning of the name, but also symbolizes the care with which Tembo selects, develops, and maintains properties. It’s classically illustrated, well-suited to honor past, present and future generations.
