The Bakehouse Collaboration That Began in Roscoe Village

A neighborhood coffee partnership grew into more Chicago mug designs.

The Roscoe Village mug was my first project with the Bakehouse team. Its success created room for other neighborhood drawings, but this original one is about the places and daily life close to their Roscoe Village shop.

Explore the artwork and find current shop information on The Roscoe Village Mug page. The mug is carried through Bakehouse Chicago; please check the mug page or contact the shop before making a special trip.

A gift idea with a real place behind it

For a friend who has moved away, the familiar names in the artwork do the work: Roscoe Street and Roscoe Village Shops are reminders of an actual place. Include a note naming the moment you shared there, or ask which detail they noticed first when you give it to them.
