DESIGN DETAILS |
DESIGN NAME: Al Mocha Port
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Coffee Packaging
INSPIRATION: The inspiration came from the story behind the brand name and the coffee provenance.
Al Mocha port, Yemen is the oldest marketplace in the world, for Arabian coffee. The port is a symbol of intangible heritage and perpetual tradition and reminds us that history is a continuum.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Rebranding and packaging design for Al Mocha Port, Saudi Arabia, one of the major players in importing and roasting specialty coffee and accessories in the region. A wide range of varieties from producing plantations all over the world is carefully imported for making the best blends for coffee connoisseurs. The objective was to create a series of packaging that reflects their deeply rooted expertise and uniqueness. The front side is clean with 3 different plain colors, aiming to attract customer attention. The coffee illustration on the sides emphasizes the attentive attitude of the manufacturer to the product selection. Each one of the pouches is bright and perceptible and does not require extra effort from the buyer while making a choice purchase.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: In addition, the redesigned series emphasizes the brand's unique properties: the colors reflect the origin and taste notes of the product. The redesigned logo is inspired by the architecture of this time period. The white label with highlighted information of origin, taste notes, elevation, and the process's methods helps the consumer to make a purchasing decision quicker. A flexible labeling system allows the brand to use the same pouch with different coffee labels as their offerings change throughout the year.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in September 2020 in Dammam, Saudi Arabia and finished in January 2021 in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

This work is an incredible example of how packaging design can tell a story and create an emotional bond with the target audience. The use of color, illustration and a clean design help to capture the attention of the customer, while still being understandable and not overly complicated. The inspiration behind the design, with references to the history of the port, is a great way to make the product stand out from the competition.
