Introduction
The ideal social meeting place is different for every individual since people’s notions of relaxation are dissimilar. For me, such a spot should be calm and pleasant first of all. If I were to open a coffee shop with the aim of turning it into the coolest place for my friends and peers to gather, I would think thoroughly about the interior, sounds and colors, and comfort.
Main body
Generally, my friends’ preferences concerning leisure time coincide: they all prefer the place to be pleasant and not too noisy. However, I would like to add something new to our routine, so my café would have swings instead of chairs, which is becoming more and more popular (Bains, 2017). To get people in the doors, I will decorate the café from the outside in a way that will be appealing but not too bright. I would use the shades of yellow since this color is considered to capture people’s attention more than any other one (“Yellow,” n.d.).
Conclusion
My café will not only serve tea and coffee but also give some food for thought: I want to let people read books there. Once visitors get inside, they will be offered seats at comfortable swings with colorful pillows, and they will be able to choose from the variety of books available on shelves. Facilities of this kind are rather popular nowadays (“Stories,” n.d.). Another important aspect to consider will be music: it will be light but not boring. Since I am a huge fan of The Beatles, I will definitely decorate some corners with their posters and will play their CDs (“The Beatles,” 2018). The possibility to spend time in a peaceful atmosphere and exchange impressions of books while having a cup of coffee will keep visitors for long periods and guarantee they’re coming back.
