  • BEHIND THE BRAND -

  • Yolked came to us looking to develop a full brand identity for a new restaurant concept in Santa Cruz, California - an all-day breakfast cafe centered around eggs & matcha.

    We started out working through naming, landing on Yolked - casual, catchy, approachable, and descriptive, which lend to the brand’s personality.

  • We pulled inspiration from their foods for their color palette, keeping things muted to avoid any kitchyness, and beautiful clean sans-serifs for their type - keeping with the casual vibes.

    Their logo is textured and handwritten with a runny yolk as the “o” making it easy to identify on the busy streets of Santa Cruz.

  • We hand drew textured illustrations, helping to build out the brand, with two yolks in the center of their iconic egg representing the two owners of this new venture.

  • For packaging, especially the coffee cups, we wanted to design something that would instantly catch your eye - imagine someone walking down the street with a matcha green colored cup having others ask them where they got it from.
