Henri & Hélène, designed by Goodside

Henri & Hélène is a contemporary French bistro inspired by the neighborhood cafés of Paris and the simple pleasure of gathering around the table.

Named after the chef’s two children, the restaurant celebrates elevated French cooking in a warm, playful, setting that’s effortlessly welcoming. Goodside developed a visual identity rooted in vintage French book illustrations, Belle Époque typography, and the soft palette of the French coastline. Hand-drawn engravings inspired by Henri and Hélène weave through the brand, creating a charming visual language that extends across menus, matchbooks, coasters, signage, and printed ephemera. The result is a neighborhood bistro that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly contemporary.
