The Balans brand is currently undergoing a major rebranding exercise to become ‘Balans Soho Society’ in a bid to emphasise the roots of the business and its alternative bohemian culture.
Balans restaurant’s collaboration with Café Reality dates back to September 2014, when we were presented with the opportunity to become involved with the rebranding of one of their West London restaurants.
Café Reality worked in partnership with Balans throughout the duration of the Kensington project, however, the vision stemmed from an unlikely source. Internationally respected Simon Costin, typically known for his expertise within the art industry and his relationships with luxury brands such as Gucci, was asked to redesign the restaurant chain’s image. This had to coincide with the restaurant’s bohemian reputation, and reflect the eccentric ethos of London’s Soho, where the Balans brand was founded in 1987.
"This is the second rebrand project we have undergone and we have chosen Café Reality for both. We have been very pleased with the furniture received thus far, especially with the customisations we’ve been able to make due to the resourcefulness that Café Reality possesses. I am sure we will be acquiring Café Reality’s services in the very near future"David Taylor, Balans Soho Society
