Nice To Meet U
Background
For my bachelor thesis, Vibeke Ngo Luu and I parterned up with the café Nice To Meet U in Oslo, Norway. Nice To Meet U is a bubble tea café that launched its first café in 2021 and currently has three café locations in Norway. The café has been very popular among the younger generation, but due to a lack of visual identity, they have had difficulty reaching out to their customers on digital platforms.
The goal of the project is to establish a visual profile with a guide so that the café can maintain a consistent style across physical and digital platforms. The purpose of the project is to define the café’s identity by maintaining a common thread through all design choices. If the café expands further, it will be recognizable, and new customers will be able to find comprehensive information through the website.
