The branding for GRIND Coffee Scrub is a rugged and modern exploration of texture and toil. It is the feeling of a refreshing, awakening, daily exfoliant to meet the daily hustle. It is the “rise and grind” for the modern, urban achiever. Using lithograph texture, color fields, neutral shades, and geometric shapes, GRIND encapsulates the modern hustler in a charming, distinguished, and urban aesthetic. The texture and elements of the rough “daily grind” are offset by bold geometric shapes and typography; symbolizing the hustlers, movers, and shakers who encapsulate the bold scents of GRIND.

This coffee-beer bar is named for the cyclical nature and alchemical roots of an Ouroboros. Illustrative, boho elements tie the brand together with iconography, infographics, and a fully custom app.

Transformed by the smoke and neon lights of the familiar dive bar, we are modern werewolves. We are a motley mix of lumberjack plaid, cigarette smoke, and dirty boots. Every Thursday we return to the den to howl at the moon for the curse of cheap beer. We are the island of misfit toys. The Trap has seen layers of stories like layers of smoke and rusted paint. It is the oldest bar in Edmond, OK. It is dark and musty. If it was a person, it would have tattoos. There is neon in every corner. When you leave the den, it leaves its scent on you. It is ungraspable, unattainable. It is the curse of collegiate alcoholism and the allure of respite after the daily grind. You can still hear the POP of the pool balls breaking in the background, the sound of laughter, and the thick smell of smoke on your nose. The smoke, ever present, reveals the animal in people. We always return to howl at the moon.
