Spinning a new concept to life and creating a [new kind of bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gachot) that mixes a love of good drinks and a love for coffee, the new Dichotomy Coffee & Spirits brand identity and design is super hip and harmoniously fuses both specialities that the brand offers in one.

Focusing on [specialty coffee and cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specialty-coffee-brand), the new Dichotomy Coffee & Spirits brand identity and design was created by Texas-based design firm Deuxtone to give the new Waco location a hip, young, sleek and refined look. What they delivered was stunning.

Giving the whole place the ultimate hipster feel, Deuxtone did an exquisite job at designing the space in an elegant and slightly masculine and retro feel. Already known for their specialty drinks, the bar is likely to blow up with its new look.
