Contraband Book Cafe boldly champions intellectual freedom by safeguarding censored books and igniting open dialogue. Through their employee-owned, community space, Contraband Book Cafe provides educational resources on literary censorship. This fully integrated brand project was developed as a concept for a banned book cafe. The campaign contains development for package design, menu design, social media and OOH advertising, and interactive design elements. Contraband Book Cafe's visual direction was inspired by the tactile nature of ephemera while paying homage to iconic literary contributions and the harrowing reality of literary suppression.
