Public is a table service bar in what was once a public bathroom built in 1896 alongside Sheffield Town Hall. The Public logotype was lifted – as an archeological artefact – from the logbook scribblings of a former bathroom attendant. The letterforms were also disassembled to create a playful visual language that would maintain the lyric of the identity without the persistence of a singular logo.
