Ceylon Store and Ceylon Sodas - an integrated retail DNA and brand system

Ceylon Store is the retail face of Ceylon Ventures' Ceylon Sodas brand, developed by Studio X as a single system spanning store design, identity, packaging and illustration.

Post-Completion Review

Ceylon Ventures came to Studio X with a brief that ran well beyond a single retail space: a physical store and a packaged product line that needed to feel like one brand, not two separate projects bolted together.

Treating the store and the Ceylon Sodas product range as parts of a single brand experience let every touchpoint, from the shelf to the shopfront, reinforce the same identity.

A retail store and a product brand, designed as one system rather than two projects.

Ceylon Ventures' brief combined a physical retail environment, Ceylon Store, with a full brand programme for its Ceylon Sodas product range - identity, packaging, illustration and production artwork, as well as the space itself.

Studio X worked across both simultaneously: developing the visual identity and typography, designing bottles and labels with custom illustration, and carrying that same language through to the retail store's graphic layouts and production artwork.

The result treats the store and the product as one brand experience rather than separate design exercises - among the broadest briefs Studio X has taken on to date.
