This winter, we’re launching something new - our first Artist Collaboration Series. It’s a project that celebrates the people, places, and creativity that make Edinburgh’s coffee scene what it is.
We’re inviting a local illustrator or visual artist to create one original artwork that will feature across a limited-edition run of Machina merch. Think mugs, prints, apparel, or something entirely new - we'll work with the chosen artist to select what fits best.
This is a paid freelance commission, and the selected artist will be fully credited and featured across our channels as part of the story. It’s a chance to bring your creative vision to life and make something the city will love.
How to apply
✨ Open to artists and illustrators based in Edinburgh.
📩 Send 3–5 samples of your work, a few lines on what inspires you about coffee, creativity, or Edinburgh, and your proposed fee for the artwork to marketing@machina-coffee.co.uk by Monday 27 October, 6pm.
We can’t wait to see your work and collaborate with someone who shares our love for this city!
