We love interesting coffee mugs. Here is a mug that looks like it is sinking. These mugs are available in white and brown here; http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/zen-you/item/10001680/ Be sure to read over the mugs description, its an interesting translation from Japanese.
I just came across this amazing poster at columnfivemedia.com. The “In Caffeine We Trust” poster is an infographic print our customers can use for tracking their caffeine consumption. What better way to track your coffee intake then by using coffee as the ink to mark up this poster.
Brilliant idea and a beautiful execution.
We are always looking for interesting coffee related posters. Feel free to leave a comment with a link to something cool.
We are in search of the perfect espresso cup. I’m really happy with our current Bodum pavina cups but I always have my eye open for other interesting or beautiful espresso cups. Not just any cup will do. It must be great looking and have the correct feel. Its also important that the cup not loose temperature too quickly as this would spoil your espresso.
Most espresso cups are made from porcelain. A nice thick cup can be brought up to temperature by filling it with boiling water before pulling a shot of espresso into it. A thick cup will hold its temperature for a while giving you a chance to enjoy your espresso with out having it cool off. Coffeegeeks.com has a great article about porcelain weight and thickness here.
Goliath sportswear has launched its “Attention to Detail” advertising campaign. They highlight “Drop Coffee” as the perfect place to get a “genius” cup of coffee. We love their website with beautifully done videos and some really well done user interface. There is even a layer of learning involved as they describe the process of making coffee. Be sure to check the site out here goliathsportswear.com

We stumbled across this awesome design for a coffee vendor t-shirt. Hope it gets voted into production one day. Check it out on Threadless http://www.threadless.com/submission/276591/Coffee_Venndor
Great work by David Staffell.
You may have noticed that we are huge fans of Threadless.com. Stop in at Upright when Daniel is working and you’ll probably see him wearing one of his many cool Threadless t-shirts.
Brothers Coffee Roasters has a great new package design. I love it when separate packages work together on display shelves.
I love coffee cup art. Here are some beautiful coffee cup drawing by Boy Obsolete. I wish this was on paper cups but perhaps art on Styrofoam is not the worst idea if you want it to stick around for a while.
Some great design work for Slurk Coffee in Copenhaegen by We Recommend a multi-disciplinary design agency focusing on developing visual identity and profile creating design.
