Designing Taco Bell after hours.

Late night is Taco Bell's home turf, and Encore Hours gives it a name, a look, and a system. The brief: make the after-hours experience feel like a space Taco Bell has created for its customers, more emotional than functional, with the edge turned back up. A night mode purple takes over the brand, and the sparkle, grain, and flash photography borrow from nightlife. The system splits in two. Emotional campaign work (posters and social) builds awareness, while a functional kit carries the look into menu boards, app placements, kiosks, and promos. Two creative directions test how warm or cool the night can run.

From posters to menu boards
Typography does the shouting: 'Glitter on the eyes, hot sauce on the hands' set in towering condensed caps, with flash photography locked into the grid beside it. Templates for stories, feed, and menus keep the voice consistent from a 2am poster to a kiosk screen.
