Philly Water Bar

Client: Philadelphia Water Department
Project Date: 2019

Brand identity and experience design for the Philly Water Bar, Philadelphia Water Department’s unique pop-up engagement tool that promotes lively discussions around tap water.

The Philly Water Bar is an experience designed to educate communities in neighborhoods across Philadelphia to choose tap water over bottled water. By serving samples in a fun, conversational space, the Philly Water Bar aims to increase drinking water literacy and build trust between the public and city government.

Guest "bartenders" (including high school students, community members, and City of Philadelphia officials) wear custom screen-printed aprons and engage with the public - serving them free pours of Philly's own tap "wooder."
