For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)
Have you ever wondered why take-out coffee cups are always the same?
Who says these cups can't be more personalized, or even become a platform for stores to show their style?
For a cup of take-away coffee, some people pay attention to the coffee in the cup, while others pay attention to the take-out cup of coffee.
Coffee enthusiast Henry Hargreaves is such a person. Once he was deeply moved by a coffee take-away cup designed by a local tattoo artist at a New York restaurant, he launched a project to collect take-away coffee cups around the world. So far, he has collected more than 500 take-away cups and taken photos to share them on the specially set up Instagram account coffeecupsoftheworld, tracking more than 41000 people. Last November, a selection of "Collection" was exhibited at Ora Gallery, an art gallery in the Querxi District of Manhattan.
"it's like owning a work of art," says Henry Hargreaves, who travels around the world.
Coffee has since become a way for Hargreaves to explore new cities. To him, the take-out cups are like souvenirs from the cafes he visited, as well as different stories. "it's about the experience of drinking coffee in different places and how cups reflect the local culture. "he said.
Do you know how Hargreaves accumulates a large fan base? In fact, everything is natural. Coffee shops often repost his photos and take the initiative to join the program, while other coffee lovers will find and track him and begin to submit coffee cup designs to him. At present, one of his ten photos of Instagram coffee cups is taken by him, while the others are best-selling works from all over the world. "it was interesting when so-and-so from Singapore sent a picture to me on the other side of the world who had never met me. "Hargreaves said.
Hargreaves uses the experience of food photography as a storytelling tool. If you are interested in his work, in addition to coffee cups, you can also follow his other photography account, henry_hargreaves_photo, to see colorful food art photos.
Looking back at the exhibition last November, in addition to Hargreaves's collection, there were also 12 artists displaying and selling their coffee cups. This is the moment when Instagram moves from fiction to real life, applauding the design that has always been ignored.
In addition to the exhibition, his works are also framed by KNOWLITA, a lifestyle brand in New York, and classic coffee cups from Brooklyn, New York and other areas are printed and published.
Do you like to explore coffee shops everywhere, too? Have you ever noticed what the take-out coffee cup looks like? In fact, life is beautiful everywhere, but sometimes we forget to open our eyes. If you are also interested in the design of coffee cups, recommend ming liu from Taiwan on Instagram. He always takes paper cups to draw baristas to record every coffee shop he has visited. The simple lines convey vivid charm, making people can't help looking down one by one.
