This venue is inspiring a social movement for change, away from habit and indoctrination, towards
a new way of viewing the world – with honest, open eyes.
Unlearn … And Learn Anew
Anti Est. asks you to let go of what you think you know. Question everything. Assume nothing. Unlearn.
In a world characterised by consumerism and “mass produced” opinions, it encourages authenticity of thought and conversation, and embraces the craft culture with unexpected, hand-made food and drink. Since it opened in Braamfontein, a previously derelict neighbourhood on the fringe of the Johannesburg city centre, it has become a catalyst for change – encouraging people from the Northern suburbs to rethink where they socialise. And they’ve done so in droves, abandoning the comfort of their usual stomping grounds for a place that sets the stage for a re-examination of what society and years of habit have dictated to be true.

The Brand Identity
The Anti Est. identity is not just a logo.
Embracing Unlearn, it is the mouthpiece for the brand. Designed to be used in any way that the consumer wants, the logo offers a “frame” through which you can interact and view the world, creating new meaning when added to everyday objects or messages.

Challenging Perspective & Drop Your Habits
The Anti Est. window installation serves as a teaser as well as an on-going invitation - Unlearn what you have assumed to be the truth and to let go of your habits. Even the illustration is not what it seems. In one moment there are scantily-clad go-go girls and, in the next, virginal nuns, depending on the lighting.
Created with RGB lighting.
