Incredible 3D Latte Art by Kazuki Yamamoto

May 20th, 2013 by Tomas | No Comments | Filed in Design

You don‘t even have to love coffee in order to appreciate these super creative latte foam artworks by Japanese artist Kazuki Yamamoto. And we‘re not talking about the little smiley faces or flat palm tree patterns: this 26-year old latte artist, based in Osaka, creates actual 3D foam sculptures in the coffee mugs of the Cafe10g visitors. This thinking outside the box – or, rather – outside the cup – even gave Kazuki the idea to make the coffee foam climb out of one cup and reach for another. That way you might be served with a cup of coffee where a cat is trying to get into another one next to it, where tiny fish are swimming.

Besides these meticulous 3D sculptures, Kazuki also does some amazing flat latte art. His subjects vary from manga and video game characters to portraits of such people as Albert Einstein or John Lennon. Kazuki says his dream is to open up a his own cafe in Tokyo one day. For more 3d latte art, be sure to follow him on twitter.

Artist Sees a Bird After Dropping Two Hula Hoops into Coffee

October 1st, 2012 by Tomas | No Comments | Filed in Design

You’ve probably seen baristas do some crazy latte art before, but it turns out that you can get even cooler results by dropping something as random as a couple of Hula Hoops into your cup. An unidentified friend of a London-based artist Stuart Rutherford dropped a pair of these potato snacks into coffee and saw a bird of prey staring back at them.

Stuart posted the picture on twitter last week accompanied by the words: “Who’d a thunk dunking a couple of Hula Hoops in your coffee would be so beautiful.”

World’s Largest Coffee Mosaic Made of 1 Million Coffee Beans

July 2nd, 2012 by Lina | No Comments | Filed in Design

If you like coffee and art then this is for you! Russian artist Arkady Kim has recently created the world’s largest coffee bean mural which was unveiled in Moscow’s Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure.

“The Awakening” was made out of 1 million coffee beans and took twelve days to complete. Weighing 397 pounds and spanning about 30 square meters it beats the previous record by Albanian artist Saimir Strati by 88 pounds and 5 square meters.

To get different shades, coffee beans were roasted. Later, they were glued one-by-one to a giant panel.

The stunning mosaic was on exhibit until July 1 at Moscow’s Gorky Park.
