Annie led the creative direction and design for Drip Collective’s first-ever merch collection, translating the coffee shop’s community-focused, POC-owned ethos into a wearable experience. Located in the heart of the West Loop, Drip Collective isn’t just a café; it’s a hub for art, music, and local culture. Annie’s designs for the merch line celebrate this vibrant blend of caffeine, creativity, and community, capturing the shop’s mission to uplift Chicago’s creatives and entrepreneurs.
In collaboration with Drip Collective’s founders, Annie developed a merch collection that reflects the shop’s unique energy and commitment to showcasing the “side practices” of local artists and makers. Through thoughtful, art-forward design, her work has given patrons a tangible way to connect with the Drip Collective community and support a space dedicated to amplifying local talent.
