Design agency ARTSBY EMDE has created a modular branding system for THOSE GUYS CAFE, featuring deep forest green paper stocks and warm terracotta cream typographic accents. The identity uses a heavy display serif typeface paired with custom mascot illustrations, all aligned to a vertical grid system. Physical touchpoints include heavy corrugated coffee cup sleeves with custom stampings and screen-printed lettering. Menu boards and window vinyls prioritize whitespace and clean grid structures. The design aims to make beverage pricing legible at a glance while modernizing standard cafe assets through strategic minimalism.
