Starbucks

Miami, Florida
1717 North Bayshore Drive
National Branding
2023

We had the opportunity to work with Greg Sausaman, CFE, co-founder, CEO of Topper’s Craft Creamery to work on his latest Miami Starbucks location. Sausaman is nationally-known for being a highly successful franchisor and franchisee to Starbucks. Greg Sausaman is an expert in multi branding, co-branding and QSR and food service operations, and a captivating speaker that adds both dynamic presentation and high quality information in franchise co-branding.

Greg Sausaman, is also the author of “Inside the Box; the power of complementary branding”, Greg shares real world practical insight and skills to successfully combine brands.

For this Miami Starbucks location, we sought to merge the motifs and iconism of the national brand to that of The Grand; an icon in itself, built in 1986 and designed by the Atlanta architectural firm, Toombs, Amisano, and Wells.

The interiors employed fluted wood millwork, pink terrazzo, and streamline-modernity ceilings formed into a massing that was informed by the function and efficiency of QSR. Interior illumination was carefully calculated to render the maximum effect of warmth and energy associated with the brand’s coffee.
