What I did on this project
Brand
Strategy
I developed a brand identity and narrative that set the tone for the project’s communication and essence: a neighborhood coffee shop serving such outstanding coffee that every sip becomes an accessible gastronomic experience.
Craft the
Visuals
I created a visual system designed to immediately communicate what you’ll truly find here: coffee, but great coffee. Contemporary, carefully crafted, and ready to become your new favorite spot, while introducing you to the world of specialty coffee in an approachable and friendly way.
Character
Design
To strengthen brand communication, I designed a set of characters that enhance storytelling and positioning across both physical and digital applications, making the brand more recognizable, versatile, and engaging.
