The Chanticleer
Chanticleer is a Nantucket institution—an elegant, rose-clad restaurant with deep roots and a distinctly French sensibility. While the iconic rooster illustration had long been part of its identity, the rest of the branding was minimal. The goal of the project was to create a full website experience that expressed the restaurant’s character more fully, using design to bring its old-world charm to life online.
Website Design
Digital Layout Design
Color Palette
The new site lets the building itself take center stage. Romantic photography, elegant typography, and a restrained layout highlight the restaurant’s historic architecture and lush gardens, while a custom color palette drawn directly from the interiors creates a seamless connection between the physical and digital spaces. The result is a presence that feels classic, atmospheric, and deeply rooted in place.
This redesign not only modernized the site’s functionality but also gave Chanticleer a clear, cohesive visual language—one that honors its heritage while supporting the needs of a contemporary hospitality brand.
