Ristretto Social Club is a new restoration business, located in one of south Italy’s most beautiful towns: Nardò. An identity that needed to feel curated, yet fresh and local. That blended all of the rich tradition of Italian coffee culture with an avant-garde design and an international touch that told the story of its owners.

Blending Italy’s Rich Coffee culture with an international touch
The goal:
The main goal was to represent all of the Italian rich coffee culture tradition, without compromising a contemporary identity. One that was able to connect both with Nardo’s population and with the international taste and interests their owners had. Traditional and timeless, but that connected with todays way of living and consuming.
Additional Information
Inspired by the world of haute couture, we drew from its seemingly mundane yet essential elements. We reimagined how the brand’s hand-crafted heritage and rich history could be translated into a more contemporary and refined visual language across all its touchpoints, from clothing tags and printed materials to digital assets and social media.
