Westside Market
A multi-brand marketplace.
Introducing Westside Market, Austin’s new retail destination from the team behind ByGeorge. This curated multi-brand marketplace brings together fashion, vintage finds, art, coffee, books, florals, and more under one roof, blending curation with lived-in charm. Rooted in the rebellious spirit of counterculture, the identity draws inspiration from past-era department stores, vintage motel signage, and the bold graphics of mid-century fashion and music posters.

As an experiential retail destination, Westside Market’s identity needed to feel distinct, while being able to play with the identities of the brands they host. Through the use of bold typography and a vivid color palette, we introduced a level of airiness and versatility that can apply to multiple brands under one roof.
For Westside Market, we looked to the heyday of 1970s retail, when department stores and malls were destinations in their own right. From London’s Biba and its iconic Rainbow Room restaurant to the bold graphics of vintage advertisements and posters, our references had a common thread — a strong use of color that lets texture shine.
