Let’s talk

Mooshi

Mooshi brand work

Brand identity and voice for Mooshi, an Asian-inspired dessert café built around the pleasure of an everyday treat.

THE CONTEXT

WHAT WE DID

Japanese, Korean and Thai-inspired desserts can be unfamiliar to some customers and irresistible to others. Mooshi wanted both to feel equally welcome, with a café people could visit on impulse, without needing a special occasion.

We gave Mooshi the easy confidence of a café that knows its desserts and doesn’t take itself too seriously. The identity is deliberately informal and a little unexpected, making discovery feel like part of the fun.

The point was to make Mooshi feel familiar before it became familiar. A place with enough character to invite a first visit, and enough ease to become a habit.

Fingerprints Creative developed the identity, voice, packaging, print and environmental design for Mooshi, a café serving Japanese, Korean and Thai-inspired desserts. The challenge was to make discovery inviting and a visit feel like an everyday pleasure. An informal, slightly unexpected personality gives Mooshi a way to introduce unfamiliar flavours without making them seem difficult or exclusive.
