Kilted Donut returned to us to design their new flagship home on Leith Walk, the very place where their story began. The prime corner site offered the chance to evolve their industrial-meets-playful identity while creating a warm and welcoming café environment unique to this neighbourhood.

We carried forward key elements from the Grassmarket and Morningside stores but reimagined them for this new setting. A bold shopfront with oversized orange lettering makes a striking street presence, while custom orange wall lighting against black walls creates an unmistakable brand moment. Bespoke signage, carpentry, and seating add comfort and personality while a dedicated back-of-house kitchen ensures smooth operations.

The result is a café that balances industrial edge with café comfort — a vibrant brand destination that captures the energy of Kilted Donut’s origins, delivered on time and within budget.
