COFFEE WAS BLACK™
is a black-owned artisan collective at the intersection of coffee, service + fashion. our mission is to create products and media that educate our customers. we specialize in bespoke products that represent the stories of our childhoods and the traditions of our communities. creating inside industries that often marginalize the “black” voice, but often use “black” labor + consumerism to establish their ideas. we reverse engineer those strategies and create consumer-forward products, through the lens of our founder/designer Malcolm Voltaire.

In addition to creating products, we design and curate menus, create the marketing assets, and project manage events throughout the Metro Atlanta area (and beyond). we specialize in using design as a bridge for emerging ideas and rebranding, that evolves into dynamic outcomes inside static industries. to learn more about how we can align our missions, please reach out to the email below.
