Context
Originally called Gold Standard Liquors at the corner of Clark & Sheffield in Chicago, Binny’s has become the preeminent store for wine, beer, and liquor in Illinois since 1948. Now with 42 locations, stores are merchandised as warehouses and their identity is dated. What makes Binny’s enjoyable is the breadth of products they carry, but among such a varied and curious product assortment, Binny’s struggles to maintain its own brand resonance with consumers.
Objective
By rebranding Binny’s as a concept store, where the products sold are also experienced, Binny’s becomes a destination rather than just an errand. Tasting rooms, mixology classes, small scale grocery, delivery options, and a new brand identity create an entirely new in-store experience.
