the costa is clear for landing

Costa Coffee officially touched down at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, bringing its signature brews and charm to the Pacific Northwest. Nestled in a busy terminal, this location was designed to be the ultimate pit stop for travelers in need of caffeine, comfort or just a moment to collect themselves before the next boarding call.

The project introduced Costa to a whole new audience of jet-lagged coffee lovers, combining efficiency with a warm, brand-right experience. From planning to opening day, the goal was simple: keep the line moving and the espresso flowing.
