About

Kākou Coffee House isn't just another coffee shop it's a vision for transforming mental health in Douglas County, Colorado. As a Public Benefit Corporation supporting The Happy Crew, Kākou is creating a space where exceptional coffee and community support blend together.

When Kākou Coffee House approached us, they faced a unique challenge: how do you present a coffee shop that doesn't exist yet? They needed to communicate their mission to potential investors while painting a vivid picture of their future space. Their vision was clear—create a welcoming environment where teens could find support, where great coffee could spark meaningful conversations, and where "all of us" (the meaning of Kākou) truly belonged. Through our partnership program, they gained not just a website, but the flexibility to evolve their digital presence as their vision becomes reality—ensuring their site will grow and adapt once their physical doors open.

The Good and the Needed to be Worked On

The Good and the Needed to be Worked On

The Good and the Needed to be Worked On

The original website had simplicity working in its favor—a clean, minimalist design with coffee beans as the backdrop. However, its sparse three page layout - including a blank home page serving as navigation - wasn't effectively communicating Kākou's compelling story or driving investor engagement.

Creating their new digital presence came with unique challenges. Without a physical location, we had no real photography to work with, and their Hawaiian name "Kākou" needed immediate context for Colorado visitors. We needed to carefully balance coffee house appeal with social impact messaging while making investor information both accessible and engaging. Our solution centered on reimagining the site with purpose and clarity. We created a dynamic definition of "Kākou" in the hero section, developed concept imagery through architectural renderings and AI-generated visuals, and wove coffee-themed botanical illustrations throughout for visual cohesion. By streamlining to a focused two-page design and implementing automated response forms for potential investors, we crafted a digital presence that effectively communicated both their social mission and their vision for a community-changing coffee house.
