OO in Coffee Shop | 咖啡店的OO

PERSONAL PROJECT | OO in Cafe illustration

. : .

Living in a diverse city like Shanghai, you can see scattered cafes in the streets and alleys. It's very similar to the city, Melbourne, where I studied abroad. When the sun is shining, when it's raining...

There will be a strong aroma when passing by, making people want to stop and stay for a long time.

The human in coffee shop: some just go to pack take away drinks and food, some sit alone in the office, some invite friends to drink coffee, chat and laugh, and some read newspapers and publication. Some enjoy a leisurely afternoon with cats and dogs, and some just spread out on the benches outside to sunbathe... And the enthusiastic staffs always greet generously like old friends: Hey, how is going? It's really enjoyable.

So I use my own brand IP character OO to represent them. OO, who was originally just little white man, dressed up as them, and recorded this moment that in coffee shop …

生活在上海这样一个多元化城市，大街小巷经常会看见错落的咖啡馆。跟我留学的墨尔本很像，阳光很好的时候，下雨天的时候…

路过都会有浓郁香气，让人想要驻足停留很久。

相比商业化模式的咖啡店，匆匆行走的路人即买即走，我更喜欢有自己独特个性的每一家或大或小的咖啡馆。每一间都像是特别存在，也更喜欢享受在这样氛围里的人们。无论是墨尔本还是上海，在这样的环境中，形形色色的人甚至可以待一整天，而他们更多只是为了在这里休憩。好像在墨尔本尤为明显，在cafe里的人：有只是去打包take away饮品和食物的，有独自坐在里面办公的，有约着朋友去喝咖啡聊天开怀大笑的，有读报纸刊物的，有带着猫猫狗狗一起享受悠闲下午的，有什么都不做就摊在外面长椅上晒日光浴的… 而热情店员总会很大方地打招呼就像老朋友：Hey,how is going？真的很享受，每个人都有自己的故事，也有一种把你拉进去喝一杯坐一会的魔力。

于是我用自己的IP人物OO来画作他们的样子，原本只是一个白色小人的OO装扮成他们的样子，记录下这一刻…
