Built a coffee brand around the feeling of being local. ☕️
LOCAL is a modern café identity designed to feel warm, calm, premium, and familiar - without falling into the usual coffee-brand clichés.
From the wordmark and earthy color palette to typography, packaging, uniforms, and real-world applications, every detail was created to make the brand feel like a natural part of everyday life.

A little more about the inspiration behind Tindara.
I wanted the identity to have a connection to Tindari, Sicily. The Madonna di Tindari statue was the starting point for the symbol, while Sicilian decorative patterns inspired the graphics around it.
For the colors, I chose mustard yellow, deep green, and burgundy, balanced with cream. I wanted to bring some of that warmth and richness into the packaging, while keeping the different elements comfortable together.
For me, these references are what give the project its character and sense of place.
