Meridian Coffee Roasters came to us with a single brief: make specialty coffee feel approachable without dumbing it down. The answer was cartography. Every roast is a journey with coordinates, elevation, and a specific terroir. We built the brand system around that metaphor — a wordmark that reads like a topographic contour, a color palette pulled from roast profiles (green to deep mahogany), and packaging that functions as a field guide.

The resulting identity launched across retail bags, brew guides, a cafe fit-out, and a digital subscription experience. First-year subscriber retention hit 74%, against a category average of 51%.
