To be honest, I'm not much of a coffee drinker. I prefer chocolate milk, but I love coffee shops. They are aesthetically pleasing and bright.

Recently I have been assigned a project by my typography teacher, to make a font book, with an article about typography that inspires the look of the book. One of the first lines in the article I chose is about how boring typography is (but also important) and to approach the subject with two shots of espresso. Tada! I'm going to make a coffee table book about coffee shops/coffee to make the topic of type less boring to the non graphic design nerd.

So, today I set out on an adventure to find the greatest aesthetically pleasing coffee shops San Diego has to offer. I invited Michaela and Hannah along to be my lovely hand models.
