✺ The shape of it

Long story short.

The whole story in three beats — the spark, the thinking, the result.

01Brief

Earn trust on a tight budget.

A community café needed a brand that signalled care, health and welcome to a diverse local audience — with no existing visual presence to build on.

02Approach

Strategy in every colour.

Greens for health, magenta for warmth, a custom illustration for instant recognition. Every choice made to communicate the mission, not decorate it.

03Deliverables

A grassroots brand that punches up.

A complete identity and printed leaflet system that gave the café a clear, consistent voice in the community. Distributed to 3,000 local residents, contributing to a 10% bi-weekly increase in café attendance.
