Coffee Culture

 

Is there anything better than stepping into a coffee shop and taking in the aroma of freshly brewed coffee? The simple answer is no. For years, coffee culture has been present and has gained popularity. The variety of different coffees that exist today allows for professional barista-style coffees that you can make in the comfort of your own home. However, this does not allow for the same ambiance and effect that small, cozy cafes give off.

Coffee culture relates to " the social atmosphere and social interactions related to coffee and coffee houses," essentially, it is the enjoyment of coffee in neat cafes with people you enjoy spending time with, who hopefully love coffee as much as you do. The origins of coffee culture stem as far back as the 14th century in Turkey, where coffee houses were used for the purpose of social hubs.

Today, coffee shops provide us with a calm and relaxing aesthetic, free WIFI, and in some cases, places to charge our phones. But this isn't their main goal; coffee houses and cafes today aim to provide the public with a calm space where minds can be at ease or a place for you to simply rest after a hectic morning. Besides the fact that we love coffee, our genuine love for the comforting beverage comes from the enjoyable experiences we have in coffee shops whether its doing a bit of work or simply enjoying some much deserved "me time". 

Each coffee shop is unique and offers different experiences. Our modern times have allowed for coffee shops on most street corners, malls, and shopping centres. So whether you enjoy an iced latte, espresso, cappuccino, or even French pressed coffee, we can all bond over the fact that we have a love for coffee and hope to share that love for coffee with others in our favourite little cafes.

    I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I do love going to a coffee shop with my friends! As you said here, they provide a calm environment for us to go to after a busy day and that is very relaxing!

Subcultures in Graphic design

Image
  The discipline of graphic design is constantly changing and is affected by various historical, social, and cultural aspects. Subcultures have grown in significance in the field of graphic design during the past several years. Groups of people who are different from the mainstream culture but who share similar interests, attitudes, and beliefs are said to belong to a subculture. These subcultures have a significant influence on graphic design because they give designers fresh insights, motivation, and views. This essay aims to provide insight into why subcultures are a significant element to consider when identifying and solving a design problem through graphic design.  Designing for specific subcultures promotes inclusivity so that no groups are left out. Many kinds of behaviours, routines and influences target individuals in each culture. It is impossible to adapt a single, universal design principle to every culture (Tang, 2020). Designers follow the universal design principles and

Coffee VS Tea

Image
  The debate around coffee versus tea has gone on for many years. With many different opinions on which is better. No conclusion has been made, and there probably won't be one considering the "conflict" between lovers of the two caffeinated beverages.  Both coffee and tea have similarities, in that they are both a source of caffeine and antioxidants. They're both made from plants, can be drunk hot or cold, have many variants, and can energize you. As a coffee lover, I would say that coffee is definitely better; however, I also appreciate and respect other's opinions that think tea is better.  I believe that both tea and coffee lovers can enjoy their beverages without this debate. We need to understand that people have different preferences and accept them rather than debate them and say which is better. Why do we have to discuss this issue when we can simply take these differences.  I think that both coffee and tea are great beverages and can bring happiness and w
