Poster Design: Aquiares Charity Coffee Events

Hand-painted illustration meets innovative coffee culture.

The Collaboration & Concept

A huge thank you to @aquiares.hk for inviting me back to collaborate on this meaningful project! For this upcoming series of coffee events, I created a custom, hand-painted illustration for their official event posters.

The Inspiration: Science, Plants, and Women Empowerment

The project centers around a unique charity box set of coffee beans. These beans undergo an innovative fermentation process infused with three distinct types of hydrosols: lemongrass, juanilama, and eucalyptus (which you can spot woven into my botanical illustrations).

More importantly, this harvest represents the dedication and hard work of local women farmers. This poster series is Aquiares’ way of honoring and giving well-deserved appreciation to their incredible efforts.

Event Highlight: Brewing with @barista_0

To elevate the experience, @barista_0 will be hosting a session using the AeroPress to showcase the extraordinary flavor profile of these innovative beans in Asia. Attendees will walk away with professional tips to brew a perfect cup of coffee for themselves and their families. It’s an event you definitely won’t want to miss!

My Creative Milestone: The Asteroid City Palette

On a personal note, I am absolutely in love with the color palette of this artwork. This was my very first time experimenting with a vintage style, heavily inspired by the stunning, whimsical color scheme of Wes Anderson's film Asteroid City.

I hope you all love the posters as much as you enjoy the exceptional coffee! Cheers! ☕
