Background
Postboy began as a creative outlet outside of design, but quickly grew into something more intentional, combining business, branding, and storytelling under Georgia Tech’s entrepreneurial spirit. In collaboration with my teammate, we launched a microbakery as a way to serve the community and exercise our skills in brand identity & art direction.
Brand Identity
At the heart of our brand identity is the feeling of anticipation and the emotional journey of enjoying dessert, from placing an order to savoring the first bite. That sense of expectation ties directly into our “made-to-order” model, where each dessert is made just for you. We found a unique intersection between desserts and the excitement of receiving mail, both rooted in rituals, intimacy, and memory-making.
Product Design & E-commerce Space
When we launched, our ordering process worked, but was clunky requiring patrons to navigate through multiple platforms to make one transaction. To address this, we explored three platforms, Framer Commerce, Shopify, and Square.
Using square as our E-Commerce platform, our final product brings the entire ordering process into one place, allowing patrons to browse our current menu, place orders, learn about our process, and see when and where to pick up their desserts.
Packaging Design
Using the brand guidelines we developed, we used this to create new assets that felt like Postboy with the goal of tying every design choice back to the sense of anticipation to savoring a long awaited dessert.
Please contact Annie Shin to learn more about the packaging design.
