Logo Design Brief
Design a logo for a local coffee shop that communicates a premium product, excitement and organic materials. We are close to a train station and we don't have seating, our logo needs to communicate quickness and efficiency, hence the name "Caffeine". People get drinks and get on the train on their way to work in the morning. Ideas could incorporate a coffee bean, and an accented e (e.g. Cafféine, CAFFÉine). Designs should communicate freshness, modernity and excitement. Please see examples attached.
