375° CHICKEN & FRIES:
THRICE COOKED'S THE CHARM.
THRICE COOKED'S THE CHARM.
OVERVIEW
375° is a french fry joint at the Lower East Side, NYC. They use a unique process to make high-quality French fries that are actually cooked three times, at three hundred seventy-five degrees (woah, you would have not probably guessed). Cooking it thrice makes sure that these goodies remain consistently crispy and perfect every time. Every time. Our goal is to give 375° the reputation of having the best French Fries in NYC. Thrice cooked's the charm.
The Lower East Side is known for its “come as you are” vibe. Its uncanny charm comes from the slight dodginess and grittiness of the area. That said, we strategized the 375° brand to be a balance between urban grit and simple. Inspired by the street art and cool style of the area, we created a brand that properly communicates its offerings while breaking a few rules along the way.

Normally fries are only cooked twice—until now. The 375° secret to the perfect fries is cooking them thrice and loading them with signature toppings. With fries being a staple especially in a place like New York, the city has its fair share of french fry joints giving 375° the need to stand out. Here, the fries are definitely kicked up a notch, and so we wanted to do the same for its branding.
The idea was to create a persona of a madman in a fry lab with a mix of Keith Haring-inspired illustrations to show the love for fries. Each illustration references pop culture or a jab at something interesting, like a frierarchy of needs.

We also created their website, which features dancing pigs, an exploding head of fries, amazing photos of food, and other niceties.
