Rumba
A vibrant, culture-driven brand identity for a Caribbean rum brand rooted in rhythm, joy, and bold expression.
About the Brand
Rumba is a tropical rum brand inspired by the energy, movement, and richness of Caribbean culture. Built around themes of celebration and rebellion, the brand is designed to feel lively, expressive, and full of personality while still maintaining a sense of quality and trust. It speaks to a younger, free-spirited audience looking for bold flavor and an experience that feels both cultural and elevated.
The goal was to create a brand that feels playful, bold, and modern while staying grounded and cohesive. I explored movement and rhythm as key visual drivers, using fluid forms and expressive typography to reflect the spirit of Caribbean culture.

Result
