Challenge

Costa Coffee has a rich heritage, one that has named it the UK’s favourite coffee shop 12 years in a row. Costa hasn’t had a brand refresh since being acquired by The Coca-Cola Company in 2019. They came to us looking for a new creative platform.

Inspiration

A cup of coffee is more than just a drink, it’s an experience, something that lies at the heart of Costa Coffee. It’s an emotional lift with the power to make your day a little better; something increasingly true since the pandemic, as people appreciate the small things that lift their mood.

Idea

As part of the WPP Open X team, we created a new creative brand platform for Costa Coffee, ‘Made a Little Better’, which centres around the insight that ‘everything is made a little better when your coffee is’.

The campaign humorously depict deeply relatable, challenging human moments, and shows how a Costa Coffee can lift us up, give us a break, a treat - or be used to form a connection.
