Spotted #13

It's time for our weekly summary of the images of branding, logos, typography and graphic design that we've spotted on the streets of our home city of London.
This week, we tell the story of the image of a rather attractive young lady who adorns the branches of the growing Lebanese restaurant chain Comptoir Libanais.
The restaurant was founded by Tony Kitous in 2008, with a desire to bring Lebanese food into the mainstream in London and the UK. Design plays an incredibly important role in each restaurant, with vibrant ceramic tiles, colourful furniture and vintage Arabic movie posters. One poster in particular had a face that Tony remembered from his youth and it wasn't long before Arabic actress Sirine Jamal al Dine became the smiling image that greets all Comptoir customers, whilst adding a shot of glamour to the capital's Lebanese food scene.
