Rouser is the Provincial American three-meal restaurant on the first floor of the Asher Adams Hotel. Based in a historically reimagined Union Pacific Train Depot, the cuisine aims to preserve the integrity of local and seasonal goodness.


As an extension of our work for the hotel, This® was tasked with defining the identity of the restaurant - creating a cohesive narrative that felt distinct yet inextricably linked to the hotel’s broader creative theme. We executed a full-suite creative strategy that encompassed naming, visual identity, collateral design, and a curated art story - designed to reflect the elemental warmth of the hearth and the industrial elegance of the original locomotive depot.
