Ministry of Coffee
Logo, menus, packaging, business cards and store signage — a premium coffee identity carried from the shopfront to the cup.
Brand Identity
Branding Services in Turkey for Global Businesses
We build brand identities for companies selling well beyond Türkiye — a global skincare brand entering the UK, specialty coffee roasters, bakery chains, industrial manufacturers. The work has to survive translation, regulation and unfamiliar retail environments.
Identity as a system, not a logo
A logo is roughly ten per cent of an identity. What determines whether a brand looks credible in a foreign market is the system around it: type hierarchy, colour roles, grid, photographic direction and the discipline to apply them consistently across every touchpoint.
We deliver identities as complete, documented systems. That matters more for international businesses than for local ones, because your brand will be applied by people you have never met — distributors, printers, local agencies — often without asking you first.
Designing for markets you don't control
Working on Bioderma's UK launch made the point clearly: a global identity has to bend to local compliance requirements and consumer expectations without losing what makes it recognisable. Getting that balance right requires knowing which elements are load-bearing and which can flex.
We build that logic into the guidelines — what must never change, what may be adapted, and who decides.
What it costs and why
Our cost base is Istanbul. A full identity system that would be quoted at €25,000–€60,000 by a London or Amsterdam studio typically lands between €8,000 and €20,000 here, with no reduction in scope, seniority or output.
Every project runs in English, over video, on a schedule that overlaps the European working day.
