Eaton Hall is an upscale Inn and Conference Centre housed in a 1930s Norman Chateau. Originally built for Lady Flora McRae Eaton as a private rural residence—the facilities rounded turrets and grand halls make it the perfect setting for sophisticated weddings and corporate functions. The folks at Matter Strategic Design designed the identity and a welcome kit that consists of six cards representing each of the services provided, which are housed in a custom sleeve.

From the engraved cover to the classic typeface to the cotton paper and the suite of old school icons, the design has a modern elegance while staying respectful to the facility’s classic charm.
