Ok so I am helping to open up a coffee shop Feb 1st. I'll be the GM of two shops, but the owner has been doing the "graphic design" up until this point
I wouldn't say I am a graphic designer, but I want to take charge of it and I would like all forms of cnc, cruel or not so that I can make some really nice sleek shit to put on my awesome ass coffee
edit: also the actual graphics are in pdf form and done in illustrator, no pixelz
v1




v2

also ignore the clipart, it's what the owner chose as our logo. not my preference but that's why im the GM not the owner :)

she did and even without her the inside of the already existing shop has the orange and grey scheme. I could add another color if you have a suggestion, but it could only be an accent

i wish i could change the logo too :(

I will end up doing one and hopefully at some point down the line we can change it. My job will be inventing the brand so those things will come with time

version 1 reads pretty good.

although I would try changing the main " three creeks " to a different font, otherwise its too much of all the same and doesnt add any importance to the title.

also the location of " house blend " seems kind of awkward

Gah my eyes @ hollowed

You need to move a few things around and change a few fonts on some of the headers

Try not centering the menu items because you has bullets on the items and you're not keeping it aligned it really throws the eye off

Also think the black box should be on the left not the right

J/w, why?

Also hate the hollow font, it hurts my eyes. And is the word mouthfeel a coffee thing? I cant say Ive ever hated a word before, but I just might now.

Involuntary start of eye movement starts from top left down
The black background fits the left and won't be skimmed off like it is now at v2

Or it's just how my phone is irritating my eyes or the hollowed don't

clean up your margins bruh
use indesign if you have to, but the text alignment's really sketchy
leave a quarter inch room all around for the text to breathe, and clean up your typo

example: House blend vs. Coffee vs. Profile = messy to the eye
