Unique Properties
As a design expression, the curved logo design that makes you feel the nature with the image of "aroma drifting from the environment" makes you experience natural and high-quality coffee. The label design collages local photographs to visually connect manufacturers and consumers, directly convey the producer's face and environment, and convey the appeal of the unique coffee produced in the production area. All packages are recyclable or reusable to protect the special soil and environment of the production area. It is a material that does not affect the environment even if it is discarded.

Production Technology
To change the low awareness of the environment in Japan
We considered a design that consumers can easily work on and create a desire for environmental friendliness.
The main container is a reusable glass bottle.
The label shows the state of the production area and the face of the producer.
You can travel the world of coffee beans.
Although it is an abstract expression, I was particular about selling "taste including process", "imagination", and "experience" and "feeling".
Design Challenge
The brand of beans changes frequently due to the number of production.
All labels are not mass-produced, and you need to use as many tools as you need according to the amount of beans produced, and that behavior leads to environmental friendliness.
Research
In Japan, environmentally friendly plastic materials and manufacturing methods are still the mainstream of product packaging. Being a small roaster, not relying on mass production, packaging is not particularly important for using advanced materials, adopting simple glass bottles that were mainstream in the past, consumers using subscription services It is designed to be refilled while. Consumers can enjoy the brand change simply by changing the label.
Inspiration
Environment-oriented design development has finally become widespread in Japan, but it is still not enough.
Communication designs such as logos, packages and tools incorporate high quality and ethical awareness in every respect.

The mission is to "provide an experience as if you were in the production area".
It wanted to embody a sincere attitude of pursuing design creatively and sustainably.

The idea of design is to convey reality without abstraction. I felt that the expression was a simple and direct way to convey it to consumers.
Project Duration
The brand started in October 2021 in Osaka, Japan. Currently there are two stores in Osaka.
Operation Flow
Consumers choose their favorite coffee brand and country and learn about the history and background of their coffee beans and production areas. Then, share the process of arriving in Japan with the barista and take it home.
After purchase, use the subscription service to replenish the beans, change the label and travel the world of coffee. You don't have to go to the store, so you can reduce unnecessary movement. In a broad sense, it also leads to carbon dioxide reduction.
