Art Deco Coffee Poster Illustration
The Flying Joe
This custom poster illustration was created for The Flying Joe as part of an expanded brand system rooted in aviation and art deco influence. The goal was to design a bold, full-color piece that could stand alone as artwork while reinforcing the brand’s elevated, vintage-inspired aesthetic.
Project Overview
Designed as a feature piece, this illustration brings together product, storytelling, and visual identity into a single composition.
The artwork centers around an iced vanilla cold brew, presented in a fluted glass and surrounded by botanical elements—creating a balance between structure and ornamentation that aligns with the brand’s art deco direction.
Design Approach
The illustration draws heavily from art deco principles—symmetry, bold framing, and refined ornamentation.
A gold border frames the composition, giving the piece a sense of structure and elevation. At the center, the iced vanilla cold brew becomes the focal point, with foam detail subtly referencing aviation through a powdered jet motif.
Surrounding the glass, vanilla bean florals and pods add softness and movement, contrasting the geometric elements of the glassware and border. The result is a composition that feels both decorative and grounded in the product itself.
