Coffee Design Awards

Great coffee is often given distinction via great design, and increasingly serves an important function in distinguishing specialty coffee. Coffee Design Awards seeks to highlight the best creativity in our industry. All entries will be on permanent display on Design in Coffee and winners will be recognized at Specialty Coffee Expo 2023, in SCA social media, press releases and on SCA News. Additionally, each winner receives a special digital mark to signify their win.

2023 Competition Categories:

BRANDING

The Coffee Design Awards Branding is about recognizing the brands, identities and visual environments that companies in coffee use to stand out. It’s about the logos, the style guides, the stationery, the posters, the flyers, the digital comms - anything and everything that's not the product itself or the space. Submissions should include logo files, style guides, and up to three high-res examples of the brand in-use on promotional assets, not including products or vessels.

PACKAING

The Coffee Design Awards Packaging identifies some of the most compelling coffee packaging designs that looks beyond brand adherence from the past year.

SPACES

The Coffee Design Awards Spaces exhibit showcases places for making, teaching, serving coffee.

VESSELS

The Coffee Design Awards Vessels exhibit showcases anything you drink or serve coffee from.

Entries must be new to the company and introduced into the marketplace no more than one year prior to the first day of the show, April 21, 2023. Each entry is $250.
