Project Overview
A French steakhouse in Miami by Mr. Hospitality, Lafayette is recognized for its layered culinary approach and transportive ambiance, shaped by the group’s signature approach to hospitality.
Positioned at the intersection of Miami energy and Parisian sensibility, Lafayette is defined by a dining experience that pairs refinement with an inherent sense of warmth. To translate this into a cohesive brand presence, our team developed a strategic framework that brings clarity, consistency, and impact across all touchpoints. Drawing from the restaurant’s interior richness, culinary expertise, and social atmosphere, we refined its visual direction to more precisely resonate with its target audience. Executed through a research-led, strategic approach informed by performance analytics, prior campaign insights, and platform alignment—ensuring every expression of the brand feels intentional and cohesive with its positioning.

MARKETING
Our marketing services for Lafayette center on shaping strategy-led efforts that capture the energy of the space while defining its distinct positioning. Through social direction and content development, we established a consistent storytelling cadence—balancing ambiance, culinary focus, and guest experience.
Creative output is designed to feel editorial yet immediate, blending campaign-driven moments with more instinctive, in-the-moment content. Key initiatives included the visual revamp of the Butcher’s Special, introducing a more modern and elevated presentation, and the launch of Vinyl Club—a new late night event concept brought to life through a dedicated campaign identity and rollout.
Media is deployed with intention to support high-impact moments and new programming, while email serves as a natural extension of the brand—introducing events, menu updates, and private dining through refined layouts and concise, visually led communication that encourages return visits and continued engagement.
STRATEGY
At a strategic level, the focus is on positioning Lafayette as more than a restaurant and instead establishing it as a cultural destination within Miami’s dining landscape and a consistent go-to for those who live in the city. This is achieved by defining clear content pillars across cuisine, design, and social experience, allowing for consistency while maintaining creative flexibility.
Our team developed structured campaign frameworks, including menu highlights, seasonal transitions, and experiential moments—each guided by a distinct tone and visual language. Particular emphasis is placed on programming and communication that resonates with a local audience, ensuring Lafayette remains part of their regular dining rotation rather than a one-time destination.
Messaging is intentionally minimal yet evocative, emphasizing mood, detail, and nuance over volume. The result is a cohesive brand world, one that feels curated, recognizable, and intrinsically connected to both Miami’s cultural rhythm and Lafayette’s positioning.
DESIGN
The design direction for Lafayette extends the physical space into a digital environment, translating its textures, tones, and unique details into a cohesive visual system. Campaign assets and social content are developed with a strong editorial sensibility that focus on clean layouts, restrained typography, and composition that allows the culinary and atmosphere to lead. The result is a design language that feels both contemporary and timeless, reinforcing Lafayette’s identity while maintaining the flexibility to evolve across campaigns and platforms.
