MONlAM CAFE

Visual identity

Branding

2025

THE BRIEF

Monlam Café was a branding project for a new coffee shop in Paris, born from the owner's long-held dream of opening his own space. The challenge was to find a way to translate Monlam's personal journey, cultural background and values into a visual identity that felt authentic to him and his incredible life story, as well as the store stand out in an ultra competitive industry. The brand needed to capture his warmth, energy and open arms while creating a welcoming, grounded atmosphere that customers could connect with.

THE solution

My approach was rooted in understanding Monlam's story and building a brand that would both reflected his personality and the brand's long term vision. Through open conversations and close collaboration, we navigated different (cultural and personal) perspectives on branding to develop a final identity that felt personal, meaningful, and would help him stand out. Seeing the final design come to life on a storefront in Paris made this project especially rewarding, marking my first experience bringing a visual identity into a physical space.
