Atmos comes from "atmosphere", a specialty coffee shop we built the full brand for: logo, packaging, merch and signage. Everything breathes the same warm air, cream and brown, like a good cup.

Context

Atmos is a new specialty coffee shop: the name comes from "atmosphere".

The problem

Specialty coffee often looks the same: minimal, cold, interchangeable. Atmos needed memorable warmth.

What we did

A complete brand: logo, packaging, signage, merch.

The system we built

A wordmark round and heavy like freshly ground beans, a cup icon built from abstract shapes, cream and brown on everything you touch: cups, bags, t-shirts, the sign.

The result

We breathe coffee: an identity you recognise from across the street and remember after the first coffee.

The brand promise is simple: we breathe coffee. A wordmark round and heavy like freshly ground beans, a cup icon built from abstract shapes, and a cream and brown palette that smells of espresso.
