Brand & Visual Design
Overview
Conker Coffee is a conceptual coffee brand, created for the software company's internal system. The brand is focused on bold, tactile design and a strong shelf presence. The project explores how a clear visual identity can communicate quality, craft, and personality in a competitive coffee market.
Objective
Create a distinctive brand system that:
-
Feels confident and crafted
-
Stands out on packaging without overcomplicating the design
-
Works consistently across print and physical touchpoints
The goal was to create a bold, characterful brand for Conker Coffee that felt crafted and intentional while still being simple and modern. It needed to feel believable as a physical coffee brand and work across packaging and supporting assets, with a strong shelf presence - even though it was initially created as a tech brands ‘fake’ product for software demonstration purposes.
My Role
I handled the brand and visual design from concept through final assets.
This included:
-
Brand direction and concept development
-
Logo exploration and refinement
-
Coffee packaging design
-
Business cards and supporting brand materials
Design Approach
The identity is inspired by the tactile, grounded nature of coffee — simple forms, strong typography, and a restrained color palette. The name Conker informed the visual tone: solid, minimal, and slightly playful without feeling novelty-driven.
Packaging was designed with clarity and shelf impact in mind, focusing on hierarchy, material feel, and balance rather than decorative elements.
The identity was built around the origins of coffee. I used global map forms as a core visual reference, then simplified them, since coffee is something enjoyed and grown worldwide. This helped ground the brand in a sense of place and authenticity without being literal.
Outcome
The result is a compact, cohesive brand that feels bold and intentional. The Conker identity works across packaging and print, and provides a flexible foundation for future extensions of the brand.
