Bedford Post Located on the historic Post Road in serene Bedford, New York, this is a lovingly-restored cafe, restaurant and inn. At an initial meeting with the owners, Louise Fili Ltd proposed the notion of fashioning the logo into a postage stamp. When discussing the different options for the imagery, the client recalled a snapshot of his grandfather standing in a wheat field. The photo was unearthed, and three logo designs were created using the image in various postage stamp formats. Once a composition was selected, Canadian artist Mark Summers was commissioned to render it in scratchboard. The logo was printed in a palette of four different colors for the various components, and made into a die-cut postage stamp to be affixed onto the menus. The check presenter, an elegant hand-made box covered in dark plum cloth, makes for a pleasant way to end the meal.
