WOLF CAFE

about.

Wolf is a small, family-run, community driven cafe in the heart of Paddington, Sydney. The name derives from the fictional wolf character seen in various children's fairy tales and folklore, in particular Little Red Riding Hood. It was important for me to build upon this existing theme by incorporating old vintage illustrations and worn grainy textures.

I wanted to curate a visual language that mimics the rustic, warm and homely nature of the business and pair it with minimal yet effective contemporary design techniques and branding.

challenge.

The challenge was to drift away from traditional commercial hospitality marketing and move towards a strategy that signifies the taste, mood, culture and vibe of the cafe. As for Wolf, its more of an "IYKYK" cafe, a space for locals to mingle, and a welcoming home for newcomers with a like-minded style.
