DeCoRaTiVe TyPeFaCeS
decorative typefaces Decorative typefaces are available for applications that need to bring personality to the brand and are meant to evoke a hand-styled/sign-painter feel. Decorative typefaces should be used sparingly and can be paired with either
Matchbook Texture ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 0123456789
Sign Painter HouseScript
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 0123456789
each other or core fonts. When using these typefaces, care should always be taken to create emphasis and hierarchy. They should be limited to short headlines, signage, artwork, t-shirts, and other similar collateral. Don’t overdo it: when combining Decorative typefaces, less is always more.

GrApHiC ElEmEnTs
graphic elements Our Graphic Elements allow art and graphics to be mixed and matched in order to apply to just about anything in the brand ecosystem. They are a great visual alternative to photography or simple type headlines, but can also be combined with those elements to create a range of different looks. These Graphic Elements can be used as single pieces of art or applied as a pattern, depending on the usage. NOTE ON APPLICATION: when using the graphic elements on a large scale (oversized posters, billboards, large enironmental graphics, etc.) it is ideal to scale down the texture as the size of the graphic element increases. For many digital applications, it may be best to use the flat/nontextured versions of the graphic elements.

FaMoUs DaVe’S Is N0T:
We’re all about having a good time and making sure everybody else does, too. We’ve always got a wink and a laugh to help people get in the mood for a great night. We’re here to help people celebrate in the most American way – with fun and great food – and we won’t rest until everybody feels like they belong at our big ol’ backyard BBQ. And we make sure that it’s some smokin’ barb- que, no matter how hard we have to work to get it done. We do it up right because it’s the right thing to do.
