More Than a Cyber Café
I’m embarrassed to admit it but I was one of the first people to criticize the concept of cyber cafés and even bet they wouldn’t last. To cut the story short, I had to swallow my words and I’m here to make amends. What we have here is the Biz Café – a concept targeted towards the jet-set workaholics who need gadget ready environments even while relaxing with a cup of coffee. Think about it, most restaurants and glitzy places in town have access to our social profile and instantly ping the world with a status update! So yes, in the future we will need a semi-office environment, even in cafés, so that we don’t lose out on work!

So this hypermodern cafe design uses emerging technology, but still embraces the disposable paper coffee cup?

Open your mind mike! It's about imagining the future. Science fiction has always been a catalyst to the direction of the future.

Needs some color, texture, otherwise Nice, Too sterile, looks like some hospital ward.
Great for colleges like USC, Yale, Harvard, Brown Univ, Univ of FL etc.
Add colors, artwork, textures & Coffee/Tea/pasteries/ snacks, Wii.
Use colors to match locale IE AZ, HI, VA, MD etc.
Make unique yet a franchise.

Thats pretty basic, considering ergonomics… Like i mean have you ever tried typing on a flat surface.? Its a basic idea with a lot of sweet rendering. Im not hating, but still… Not really that sold or convinced…?

If everything one day will be digitalized it will look like this I suppose. I don’t like it, because it’s not healthy.
