Mantle

Mantle is a process driven cafe in Temple Bar, Dublin. The client wanted to establish a brand that elevates the conversation around coffee in Ireland. Designed as a café‑bar, it encourages customers to engage directly with the baristas, learning about the origins, roasting and brewing behind each bean. A modern take on the Irish pub, a welcoming space for people to connect.

The goal was to create an identity that felt progressive yet familiar. It blends Celtic type forms with the natural bold hues of Irish Rhizocarpen. This creates a striking contemporary visual rooted in Irish culture.
