01 / The starting point

Some brands wake you up.
This one helps you
slow down.

Sore means afternoon in Indonesian. That small space between a busy day and an unhurried evening became the starting point for a coffee brand built around the pleasure of taking a pause.

The creative challenge: give an everyday ritual a distinct personality. Something warm, tactile, and familiar, with enough character to feel like a small discovery on a crowded shelf.

THE CENTRAL IDEA

There’s a little good
in taking it slow.

LESS RUSH. MORE RITUAL.
02 / A feeling, made visualWarm. Honest. A little playful.

Familiar, with
a little character.

An expressive serif wordmark brings a human touch. A simple sun mark captures the afternoon. Earthy colours and quiet layouts leave room for both to breathe.

03 / Bringing it together

A small world.
A consistent feeling.

From the coffee bag to the tote you take home, the identity repeats a few simple elements with intention. The warm palette, generous type, and conversational voice make each piece feel part of the same story.

This exploration brings strategy, identity, and packaging into one coherent direction. It is a self-initiated concept, with no commercial launch or performance results claimed.
