PAUL BASSETT

Visualizing the Journey from Bean to Cup

PAUL BASSETT

PAUL BASSETT is a premium coffee brand that uses the world's top 7% specialty coffee to provide customers with ‘a perfect cup of coffee.’ In collaboration with 2013 World Barista Champion Paul Bassett, it constantly thinks about the best coffee recipe and insists on the quality of coffee beans, optimal roasting, and strict coffee making under the motto of ‘No compromise the quality.’ The brand offers customers a pleasant break with sincerity in coffee and pride in superior quality.

The visual identity was enhanced by building an eye-catching graphic visual system with the superiority of PAUL BASSETT's signature product. By implementing an attractive and expandable visual system while delivering brand philosophy and authenticity, it represents the differentiated value of Paul Bassett. YNL Design accomplished a visual identity that promotes brand content and enables communication through various channels by designing expandable graphic motifs, rather than the existing barista image or infographic style-focused visual communications.

PAUL BASSETT's graphic motif emphasizes the brand's premium image, creating a sophisticated sensibility. An eye-catching graphic motif was developed by visualizing the barista's coffee making process and the raw ingredients of coffee, and it intuitively represents the brand's main products by utilizing graphic motifs along with images. It creates the premium brand image which is also well matching with the cafe by using two types of main colors reminiscent of coffee or raw ingredients. The graphic motif is flexible enough to easily keep the same tone and manners even with different images and contents. YNL Design also suggested an expandable design that can be used for not only packages and SNS channels, but advertising media, menu boards, and wall posters.
