CLIENT

Casa Rio is an Aus­tralian cof­fee com­pa­ny, whole­saler of pre­mi­um cof­fee prod­ucts to the hos­pi­tal­i­ty indus­try. Casa Rio has evolved to be much more than a cof­fee com­pa­ny but has held fast to its 50-year her­itage. Sub brands include Rio Coffe, Rio Cuci­na, and Rio Beverages. 


BRIEF

An invi­ta­tion to whole­sale and retail cus­tomers to make a pre­mi­um impres­sion, rein­forc­ing the val­ues of the brand. Design­ers may have been exposed to great let­ter­press print­ing, where­as many cus­tomers have not, so it still cre­ates that wow fac­tor. Stock selec­tion and thick­ness was key to con­vey the pre­mi­um message.


APPROACH

To invite guests to the relaunch of an exist­ing brand. The iden­ti­ty incor­po­rates a new logo with cus­tom type­face, ref­er­ence to strong diag­o­nals, and fonts con­sis­tent with oth­er collateral.

PRODUCTION LESSONS

The paper stock takes the ink really well, holds a deep impression, and is rigid once duplexed. Cutting required particular attention to eliminate moulding from the guillotine clamp pressure. Overall, very pleased with the final outcome.
