Packaging Design Brief


Coffee Bag Design Size ( bag size 12 -16oz / 340 -454 grams / 1lb - dimensions) THE BAG IS GUSSETTED - meaning it has 4sides , like the bags shown in the attachments

* recommend text located at the bottom of the brief added July 9 th

We need a design for a retail 1lb coffee bag to package our Artisan handcrafted roasted coffee beans. The design we choose will be the standard 'look' for our freshly roasted coffee. We have our logo and need to incorporate that into an original, overall design that includes areas for text boxes on the front, back and sides. We have provided a draft of the text at the bottom of the brief to be incorporated in the design. One text box on the front will remain blank. This is where we will adhere a label that will describe the particular coffee in the package. And blank text box on the back to print a bar code.
(Side of the bag : one side of the bag would be our company story (details can be found on our web site) and the other side panel brewing instruction. I would be able to provide the txt for the 'story' and 'brewing instructions' as needed)

These are our preliminary thoughts and are open minded to other options.
We want the design to convey that our coffee is an ethically sourced , locally hand roasted in small batches , freshly roasted, sustainable, socially and environmentally responsible.

This bag will be the our main core bag for use with all the Blends / Roasts so it will need to be starting point for our overall bag design branding. We are very open to all and any creative ideas..
Ideally we would like to use a crisp white gloss bag - the logo would be the main focal point with an area below for where we would place our sticker - roast / blend details .we will be to using a sticker on the front of the bag to identify the various roasts / blends we offer until a point of having a different bag for each coffee. We don't want the bag the appear 'busy' as we prefer images over covering the whole bag with a photo.. the design needs to be crisp , clean , not overall busy, classy , using inspiration perhaps from the logo , lions mountain range , blue ocean, green trees .... our customers enjoy the finer things in life and our brand is more of a luxury product.
Who we are:
We are a Artisan coffee roaster located in the village of Lions Bay. Our hand crafted roasted coffee is ethically sourced , locally roasted in small batches to ensure freshness in every cup. please check out our web site for further details on the company. Again , we are open and looking forward to seeing some fantastic core bag design. we will be looking for the opportunity to develop stickers for each blends in the future...

THE STORY OF


THE LIONS BAY


COFFEE COMPANY,


Nestled beneath the two majestic peaks of the Lions Mountains along the scenic Sea to Sky highway, is the picturesque village of Lions Bay. This small waterfront community on Vancouver’s North Shore boasts a synchronicity between snowcapped mountains that feed twinkling creeks which meander through lush green forests and lead to the beautiful ocean. This was our inspiration to create Lions Bay Coffee Company and to share our passion for the perfect cup of coffee as reflected in each of our roasts. Our artisan roasted coffee is ethically sourced, using the highest quality Arabica beans then locally roasted in small batches to ensure freshness and the finest flavor. May the coffee you are about to enjoy, enhance your day as you experience the essence of Lions Bay.
