I worked with the amazing and talented folk at DutchScot providing key art as part of a branding project for Shanghai Me, a fine dining experience located in Dubai, Doha with upcoming locations in Monaco and London.
Shanghai Me is the epitome of Art Deco elegance located in Dubai’s International Finance Centre, the cuisine inspired by culinary traditions of East Asia.
The Art Deco interior of the restaurant is a homage to the city’s golden era when it was a melting pot of different characters, cultures and personalities. A prosperous place where ‘chambermaids could turn into princesses’.
