IT’S WEEK TWO OF ContraQuest
One project I’m really proud of is Cafe SteepCo ☕
I handled the brand identity from strategy to visuals, making sure everything felt warm, consistent, and intentional.
What I learned:
→ Strong brands are built on clarity, not trends
→ Consistency across touchpoints builds trust
→ Small details make a brand memorable
Tools used:
Figma · Illustrator · Photoshop
How it shaped me:
This project helped me grow as a strategic brand designer, packaging designer and reminded me why I love building brands with meaning.
What I want more of in 2026:
→ Helping brands tell clearer stories and show up with confidence.
→ Helping brands build strong identities and packaging systems designed for long-term impact.

This branding is so warm and inviting! The packaging especially stands out - love the playful illustrations. Your learning about clarity over trends is spot on. What was the most challenging part of the packaging system?
Thanks a lot, I really appreciate that. The main challenge was creating a cohesive system where the illustrations enhanced the brand warmth while still allowing clarity and consistency across different packaging formats.
This is amazing

This branding is absolutely delightful! ☕️ The warm orange color palette perfectly captures that cozy cafe vibe, and the consistency across all touchpoints is spot on. Love how you've created a complete brand experience from strategy to execution. The illustrations are charming...

If there’s one thing that needs to look as good as it tastes, it’s Fried Chicken.
I recently wrapped up the full brand identity for Heikan, a brand that needed a visual style as bold and "crunchy" as its recipe. My goal was to move away from standard fast-food tropes to create a modern, high-energy look that stands out in a crowded market.
🛠️ The Recipe:
Logo Design: Scalable for everything from signage to packaging.
Color Palette: High-contrast tones to grab attention instantly.
Typography: Bold fonts that scream premium quality.

Maybe it's just me but I still love my about page Parallax.
Parallax on about pages never gets old, it adds so much depth and personality to a first impression.
Exciting to see this going live.
Really like the softness of the visual language — the UI feels clean without losing warmth. That balance is harder than it looks.
