The C Word
A bold new coffee shop concept with a name that stands out and a brand identity to match.
For The C Word, a new coffee brand based in London, we were asked to create a visual identity that balanced playful energy with minimalist design. The result is a confident and cohesive brand system that brings personality to every touchpoint without losing its sense of quality or trust.

The Challenge
Reflect the brand’s cheeky, memorable name while still conveying warmth and credibility.
The C Word needed an identity that could carry its bold name with confidence, while still appealing to a design-conscious audience. The challenge was to find the right balance between standout character and long-term professionalism.

Our Approach
We developed a flexible visual system with room to adapt and evolve.
The identity includes three distinct logo styles, each offering a different expression of the brand — from clean and modern to handwritten and character-driven. Custom illustrations, a thoughtful colour palette and a mix of bold sans-serif and serif typefaces added charm and texture, giving the brand personality without overwhelming its simplicity.
Result
A fresh, versatile identity that feels considered and full of character.
The final brand world feels confident and adaptable, working across packaging, signage, merchandise and digital. It positions The C Word to make a memorable impression in a busy market while staying true to its original concept.
