The brief

A consistent coffee brand

Coffy sells 100% Arabica speciality coffee by the cup, by the bag and to businesses. It wanted one identity across its cups, its packaging and its online store.

The challenge

Applying the identity across print and digital

The project brought together physical brand applications and an online store, each with its own layout and content requirements.

The identity

Logo, colour and typography

The identity combines a badge logo, a palette led by deep teal, and Calistoga and Poppins typography.

The finished work

The project gave Coffy a complete identity and WordPress store, with packaging and retail materials that customers recognise as part of the same brand. When the business branched out from coffee, Geeklab created Weirdough, its bakery and deli brand built around the Argentine medialuna.
