A social media identity was generated from the branding guide, curated to promote the brand's mission and image. Using the soft and dark brown contrast to encourage a hierarchical viewing of the social media page with a high contrast profile picture, eye-catching highlight covers, and color-cohesive posts.

Merchandise

From visual to the physical, the cafe's identity is carried throughout with a soft, palettable design that any pet enthusiast would be drawn to. Clean and concise but with a cuddly side, the extended branding of Paw Bean doesn't just stop at the storefront but carries into their cups, to-go bags, roasted beans, and other various promotional materials.

Hiya! I'm Mia,

a Mexican-American graphic designer, despite the southern accent, born and based in Augusta, Georgia, and currently on track to complete my B.F.A. in Graphic Design. When I’m not designing, I’m usually collecting stationery (especially the cute kind), sketching by hand, or hunting for the perfect pen, my current favorite being Muji Gel pens.My heart is in publication and campaign design, supported by illustration and strong digital foundations. I’m drawn to work where ideas move fluidly between the digital and physical, blurring the lines between mediums. Translating physicality into the digital world and vice versa adds depth and energy to my work, and I love how this exchange creates a deeper connection between message and audience.

I thrive in process-driven, collaborative environments using feedback, critique, and dialogue as tools to strengthen ideas. I rarely work alone for long and enjoy the back-and-forth of collaboration as it is where my best work tends to bloom.My approach naturally leads me toward friendly, simple, and engaging design solutions. I create work that values clarity, adaptability, and a subtle sense of play to bring brands and ideas to life across print and digital spaces.

cool fact, i've done metal casting
