Barberhood

Gold leaf shopfront

Barber Hood is a Sydney based barbershop known for its high end service and precision cuts. Blending classic barbering tradition with a contemporary edge, this is the business’s third venue, and it was an honour to continue to supply the traditional gold leaf signage for this newest location, over a decade after the first store’s opening.

The signage on the glass shopfront was traditionally hand painted and gilded, creating signage for both the barbershop and the hidden bar that comes alive once the shop closes at night.

The challenge was ensuring the two closely related identities worked cohesively without feeling confusing or cluttered. Through considered layout, hierarchy, and subtle variations in lettering and finishes, the signage reads as a unified facade while still clearly distinguishing each venue to the public.
