Logo design for brewery Mamica

Mamicu ti, what a brand!

Mamica — it’s a word full of warmth, love… and maybe a tiny bit of regret.

In Croatian, it means mommy — sweet, dear, familiar. But it also means a hangover (“Mamica mi je.” = I’m wrecked). And sometimes, when tempers rise: “Mamicu ti tvoju!” — a swear, wrapped in a lullaby.

The name Mamica carries all those layers — affection, tradition, drama, and playfulness — which made it the perfect inspiration for a brewery brand that doesn’t take itself too seriously, but still knows how to leave a lasting impression.

A vibrant collage showcasing elements of graphic design, including a man in a red and gold uniform, beer taps, vintage patterns, a retro phone, and a "Start" button from an old operating system. The collage represents creative design, a start-up, and retro influences, all tied to the concept of "Krivi Kut.

How the story brewed

The team behind Mamica came to us with a clear vision: a hip, character-rich brand with a nostalgic twist. They wanted warmth, but also boldness — something instantly recognizable, something that feels like home.

Mamica became the heart of it all. We took a deep dive into a past full of chunky TVs, crocheted doilies, loud wallpaper, and glorious kitsch. We dissected it, studied it, and reassembled the pieces into a style that felt retro, but never outdated. Sweet, but with attitude.

The result?

A brand that hugs you like your mom — but also raises an eyebrow and pours you another pint.
