CacaoCafé Réserve Dunham Branding

Cacao Café — Reserve Dunham is a premium coffee and chocolate café brand built around restraint, craft, and quiet confidence. The identity draws inspiration from old-world merchant houses and Canadian heritage, blending classic typography, deep green tones, and understated botanical symbolism.

The brand centers on the pairing of coffee and cacao, expressed through a restrained visual system that favors editorial typography, archival details, and minimal ornamentation. Every element, from the crest to the menu design, was developed to feel inherited rather than invented, balancing warmth with refinement.

The result is a timeless café identity designed to scale across physical space, packaging, and digital touchpoints while maintaining a sense of discretion, quality, and permanence.
