CASE NOTES
記録
The brief
Kuro opens at six in the evening and closes after the last train. The owners wanted a brand that worked as well on a rainy street as on a paper cup.
What we made
A wordmark drawn to be bent in neon tube, a black-on-black packaging system and a vertical sign that became the shop’s landmark.
What changed
The sign is now how people give directions. The cups travel the rest of the city.
