Jul’s Coffee & Peace — Supporting a Local Café Through Digital Revival
Jul’s Coffee & Peace — Supporting a Local Café Through Digital Revival
Jul’s Coffee is a small café based in Bucha, a town near Kyiv, known for its cozy atmosphere and strong local community. After suffering heavy damage in early 2022, the team behind the café began rebuilding the space with limited resources and a strong belief in restoring what once brought people together.
CHALLENGE
CHALLENGE
The café had a surplus of premium coffee beans in storage, but no physical space to operate or income to support reconstruction. They needed a way to:
Raise funds quickly and transparently.
Share their story with both local and international supporters.
Set up online donations and coffee sales — without an existing digital platform.

MY APPROACH
MY APPROACH
Having been a guest at Jul’s Coffee before, I felt a strong personal connection and volunteered to help. I proposed a bilingual website (Ukrainian and English) to make the initiative accessible to both local and global communities.
The design language focused on hope, peace, and cultural identity:
Colors were drawn from the café’s signature blue and paired with yellow, Ukrainian flag colors.
I created a custom illustration of a Ukrainian girl in traditional dress holding a dove, representing peace and quiet strength.
The site included options to donate any amount or purchase coffee as a form of support, with delivery available in Ukraine and abroad.
