OVERVIEW
Create a line of ready-to-drink (RTD) coffee offerings for the Seattle-based Fuel coffee brand, which only exists as ground or whole bean products. This new sub-brand or product line should feature the parent brand logo while having its own identity as either a product line or sub-brand. The RTD brand was expanded into an immersive pop-up experience and trade show booth.
CHALLENGE
Fuel Coffee, an established brand in the coffee industry, aims to expand its presence into the ready-to-drink (RTD) coffee market. They must create a unique brand identity while staying true to Fuel’s original company values.
SOLUTION
The RTD sub-brand incorporates bold yet fun illustrations of the real drag queens of Seattle and generates fun names for flavors based on the drag queens’ actual names. The pop-up drag stage experience aims to immerse visitors in the dynamic world of drag coffee, while the trade show booth showcases the boldness of both brands.
