DINK & DRIP - Where the serve meets the sip.
A brand built at the intersection of two rituals, coffee and pickleball, for a generation that treats the court like a social club and coffee like a pre game ritual.
The mark says it all before a single word does. One D becomes a paddle. The other is turned into a cup, topped with a curl of steam. One letter, two rituals, one story, working just as hard on a cap as it does painted across an entire court.
Cobalt, chartreuse, and forest green. An editorial serif paired with a playful icon. And a tagline that does double duty as brand voice: Serve. Sip. Repeat.
From storefront signage to packaging to a literal court branded takeover, this identity was built to move fluidly across every touchpoint without losing itself once.
Full case study coming soon.

Most healthcare branding reaches for the same visual shorthand: a cross, a heartbeat line, a shade of clinical blue. ClinScale needed something else. It's a platform built around turning clinical expertise into a real business, and the identity had to carry that idea instead of borrowing from medicine.
So the system starts with a single unit. One shape, precise and self contained. Add another, and they connect. Add more, and they form a structure. That's not a metaphor added after the fact, it's how the whole graphic system works, because the belief behind ClinScale is that growth only holds up if there's structure underneath it.
Deep neutral tones and metallic dimension carry the rest: enough weight to read as serious, without ever tipping into the coldness healthcare branding usually settles for.
Project made in collaboration with Nathalia Ultramar
Really like how the visual system actually comes from the idea behind the brand. It feels much more intentional than just using the usual healthcare symbols.
This is beautiful, Daniel
Almost two years ago, I started shaping the visual identity of my own studio.
Time flies. Couldn't be happier with what we've built so far, and what's next!
The eye motif carrying through every project instead of just the logo is what makes the studio's own identity actually recognizable, most agencies never bother applying their brand to themselves that consistently.
