Daily More brand IP hero with character and packaging context

Overview

Daily More needed a vivid vintage-cartoon logo and identity for website, milk-tea bottles, wrap bags, and interior. Characters are playful deformations of a plate and a milk-tea cup — memorable IP for Thai street food & milk tea in Florida.

Logo design exploration

Sketches tested character poses, palm-tree framing, and type arches. Final mark pairs the plate character with a sleeping cup companion under “DAILY MORE / Thai Street Food & Milk Tea.” Orange, green, and peach reference Thai cuisine color and Florida tropical context.

Menu design

Food menus and seasonal posters extend the brand into daily operations — pairing dish photography with playful type, while milk-tea series posters keep the IP characters and packaging in the same visual language.

In-store applications

The identity lands on cups, matcha and Thai tea packaging, neon signage, and interior walls — mixing studio shots with customer Instagram photos from the Orlando location.

Derivative design

Festival stickers put the two IP characters in lively scenes for customer giveaways. A simplified mark scales to staff uniforms and food packaging without losing recognition.
