Edill’sCoffee House

Warm coffee. A touch of the wild.

Edill’s packaging redesign concept: ivory and charcoal coffee bags with animal engravings and a cream cup

A coffee house, reconsidered

A coffee bean nestled inside the letter E becomes a distinctive seal. This visual refinement builds around it: clearer typography, more breathing room, and room for the animal engravings and tactile paper to shine.

01 / The identity

It begins with an E.

The original seal, horizontal and stacked logos remain. What changes is the space around them: generous margins and a restrained palette give the identity greater clarity.

02 / The packaging

Less ornament. More intention.

Three clear levels: the seal, the coffee name, then the illustration. Small colour tabs identify the variants; ivory and charcoal hold the family together. Typography has room to breathe, and each animal has a place of its own.

01

A recognizable beginning

Keep the seal intact, with a consistent position and ample clear space.

02

Let the coffee name speak

Use scale and spacing to give the coffee name a distinct, readable voice.

03

Keep the essentials clear

Focus the front face on the essentials, leaving space for paper and illustration.

A quieter rhythm for tea.

The original packaging archive also includes Black Tea and Cinnamon & Cardamom. The seal and botanical artwork carry into a new paper-and-olive pairing, with larger names and more space for the branches to unfold.

03 / A touch of the wild

Fine lines. A lasting impression.

The animal drawings are a distinctive part of the original visual archive. On the redesigned packaging, they move from supporting detail to a central visual, set against quiet colour and tactile paper.

04 / The everyday ritual

From the paper bag to the cup in your hand.

The same seal, at different scales, connects cup, coaster and paper bag. The identity comes together through these small, tangible encounters.

05 / An identity in collaboration

Common ground.

The archive pairs Edill’s coffee-bean seal with the Africa-shaped Giants of Africa mark. The new study preserves both drawings, giving their distinct characters more space and a considered visual balance.

One shared theme. Different formats.

Common Ground brings coffee and connection into a new theme. Large typography and warm brown arcs lead the poster; the display card gives the paired identities a focused setting. Both are new flat-artwork studies.

Different outlines. Intact identities.

Four outlines from the source inform new proportions, spacing and margins. These are studies of composition and format.

Original identity: 2023. Portfolio visual refinement: 2026. The original logo system is retained, with packaging and applications reinterpreted. The opening and window-side scenes are AI-assisted concept visualizations, not production packaging or photographs of the café. The collaboration chapter draws on four original 2024 artboards in ed.afdesign and retains both supplied vector marks; the Giants of Africa identity is not claimed as original work here. Common Ground, refined spacing, the poster, display card and format studies are independent 2026 flat-artwork proposals, not adoption or event-delivery claims. The tea series reinterprets two varieties and botanical artwork from the 2023 Package V2.afdesign source. Its new front panels are 2026 design studies, not complete production labels.
