Heirloom was envisioned to be a gem in Brooklyn. The Café is a space where all the different
ethnicities can meet (it is afro-american targeted but it embraces all kinds). It is a place for artists , families, where you can feel joy, peace and love.
When Ajua told me what she expected from the branding strategy she made sure she mentioned key-words that would help me out in this process: elegant, peaceful, exciting, café, bookstore, poetry, open mic, afro-american, brooklyn, gem, friendly.
She described to me that she is looking into putting stencils of big leaders such as Gandhi, Luther King, Mother Theresa etc on her walls to inspire those around.
She also mentioned she liked earth-tones, but really loved purple and a combination of vibrant colors; for typeface, she loves script and delicate designs that can speak to everyone.
