Self-initiated project Brand Identity Print Concept
Grounded. is a café concept built around a simple, radical idea: the waste from your morning coffee becomes the object you drink from next time. Used coffee grounds, collected from the café itself, are transformed through ceramic craft into small-batch pieces (cups, bowls, plates) that close the loop between consumption and creation.
The name does two things at once. It roots the brand in its raw material while suggesting something solid, unhurried and intentional. In a space built around noticing what you leave behind, that double meaning earns its place.
The visual identity leans directly into the material. A deep coffee brown forms the foundation: earthy, warm, uncompromising. Against it, lavender carries the headlines, creating a contrast that feels unexpected rather than obvious.
