Printed Paper Cup.
A 12 oz cup for a neighborhood café — full-color wrap print, food-safe lining and a lid that actually stays on.
Overview
A cup worth carrying across the street.
The café's old cups were plain white — invisible in a city of coffee. We wrapped the cup in a bold vertical wordmark with a smile mark, printed edge to edge so the brand reads from every angle, sleeve or no sleeve.

Approach
Print that survives the morning rush.
Cup artwork distorts on the taper — straight lines bend, small type vanishes. We designed on the flat blank with distortion compensation, kept critical text in the safe zone, and chose inks rated for heat and condensation.
Lids were fit-tested across three production batches so every cup seals first time, even at rush hour.
Outcome
Takeaway that advertises itself.
Every cup leaving the counter is a walking billboard. The café reports customers photographing the cups unprompted — and a matching two-cup carrier means pairs of cups arrive intact, branded twice.
