// Briefing

The brief

Mørk roasts in small batches and sells mostly to cafés. Their old bags were kraft paper with a sticker, and every café already had three of those on the shelf.

They wanted packaging a barista would reach for without reading it.

The idea

We went black on black. The bag is matte, the mark is a single gloss stroke, and the roast date is printed large in the only white on the pack, because that is the one thing customers actually check.

// Debrief

Mørk now ships to forty cafés across Norway, and the black bag has become the thing people photograph first.
