Alere Café — the experienceFROM INTENTION TO INTERACTION.
01 / THE CHALLENGE

A problem
worth solving.

Alere (from the Latin “to nourish”) needed a brand that captured a café-meets-coworking ritual: warm, calm, and quietly elegant.

I crafted the identity and web experience so every cup, ritual, and conversation feels like it belongs to one story.

02 / THE THINKING BEHIND IT

Intentional at
every turn.

  1. 01

    Let the space introduce itself through a photographic opening, oversized moving typography and a gallery of different moments inside Alere.

  2. 02

    Carried the warm, editorial identity across a deeper website: menu, memberships, events and contact each have a distinct destination.

  3. 03

    Connected the five environments to the reasons people visit: coffee, focused work, meetings, games and time with family.

  4. 04

    Made memberships easier to explore through four ways to stay, with a day-pass invitation as a lighter first step.

  5. 05

    Gave the community programme an agenda with category and status filters, while retaining a separate path for organizing a private event.

  6. 06

    Kept practical decisions close to the atmosphere: location, hours, bilingual navigation and direct contact remain part of the experience.
