We kicked off the Specialty Coffee Association Expo by unveiling the vibrant new booth design and refreshed look and feel for our friends at Swiss Water. The energy was incredible, and seeing people explore and interact with the space we created was next-level rewarding.

Another huge moment was spotting our packaging design for Sum›One on display at the Coffee Design Awards. Being recognized alongside some seriously innovative work reminded us exactly why we love working in coffee and design.

Of course, Expo isn't just about booths and awards—it's about reconnecting with old friends, making new connections, and soaking up inspiration from every corner of the coffee universe.  And to cap it all off? The legendary La Marzocco party delivered once again.
