Located between Malaga and Marbella, the former Byblos Hotel, opened in 1986, was completely renovated and reborn as La Zambra 2022.
Bamboleo is a cocktail bar at La Zambra that has a quirky range of cocktails on offer which have been created to celebrate Byblos’ rich history – A favourite of international jet-setters, celebrities and royalty that seeked privacy and a secluded retreat, the Byblos hotel was a paragon of luxury, elegance, and hospitality in Spain, a hedonistic icon of the 80s and 90s.
While the Bamboleo bar cocktails were exquisite and delicious there was a need to present them through a menu that no only embodied that sentiment but also entailed the idea behind them and what they celebrated.
Rudy de Souza worked on a graphic concept to redesign the Bamboleo bar menu that brought the bar space vibrancy and history to life and presented the tailored cocktails in a way that mixed collage work and tabloid style storytelling to the suttle background of shapes and lines inspired by the hotel’s iconic architectural features.
