The challenge
Aalto roasts some of the best beans in the region, but its brand spoke only to people who already knew that. New customers bounced off jargon-heavy labels and a website that read like a lab report.
What we did
We rewrote the voice first: short, friendly, and honest about what each coffee tastes like. The identity follows with a single rounded wordmark, a soft palette per origin, and a web shop that sells by mood.

“They gave us a voice before they gave us a logo. That order of work is why the brand still holds up two years on.”
