Cafe Design Language & Pattern Matching

The ideas and the products being served at specialty “coffee” cafes is changing. They do not have to be a place where coffee is at the center of the celebration. Tea, in particular matcha, is sharing more and more of the spotlight. A new generation of suppliers is creating a new set of tools unified by a recognizable design language to signal quality and intention in a matcha program.
