Crafting Together x Down River Coffee

We were commissioned by Down River Coffee to create an artwork for their ‘Fireside Blend’. 

Downriver Coffee Roasters is a specialty coffee roasting and supplying business based in Inverclyde, on the west coast of Scotland. Their coffee beans are ethically sourced, fully traceable, and outrageously delicious. 

Downriver gets its name from its position on the Clyde ('doon the watter' as some may say), nestled in the town of Port Glasgow amongst Inverclyde's incredible coastal scenery, its industrial shipbuilding history, and its strong sense of community spirit.

Down River Coffee commissioned the art group at Crafting Together to come up with an artwork for the packaging of their new blend. The brief was: cosy, warm and winter-y and the artists all delivered! We came up with an array of amazing artworks which made selecting quite a challenge. In the end we decided to go with Kenny Mackay's collage of a cosy fireside scene. Over the years of attending Crafting Together, Kenny has developed an incredible way of drawing with scissors, choosing colours and depicting scenes in such a playful way.
