Coffee in web design
21.08.08Filed Under: Web Design
Coffee drinking culture is certainly very popular in the world, Malaysia is no exception too. Coffee houses sprung up in many places and everyone just love to get a cup of coffee when on and off working hour. Perhaps coffee culture gave certain kind of lifestyle definition or maybe the designer loves to drink coffee very much, so they decided to put a cup of coffee on the web design.
It’s a very unique trend in web design as, many examples shown below they not only show coffee but working tools and gadgets as well, for example laptop, drawing tablet, media player and more. This is a way to show the site owner’s personality, and his desire to expand his personal space to web, and to get personal with visitors too. And another similarity is, the site designs also often feature wood texture background too.

Well, actually that is not coffee but tea called “Teh C Peng”, a very famous tea in East Malaysia. More info about the tea here.
Another one, but this from Brazil.
