[this week one of my favorite illustrators, alex eben meyer, is joining us in the morning to share sketches from his trips to brooklyn coffee shops.



coffeeshop // second stop: getting to this coffeeshop early is key, too late in the day and second stop turns into a laptop zoo. featuring a refill station for your coffee, big windows and i think might be best construed as donut-muffins…sugar/butter/lemon top. yes, i suggest you try one. (d*s guest blog score: 4 out of 5 sketchbooks)

I love it! Makes me want to visit Bklyn again…
Interesting that a clothes pin is taking center stage. I use them daily in my life, never to think that center stage is appropriate
as an artist and fan of distinctive draftsmanship–these drawings are as delectable as a raspberry danish! And of course love the theme…
Beautiful work! I love the little coffee drops on the mailbox. :)
suddenly, he has became one of my favourite illustrators too! such beautiful drawings!
it’s wonderful to have this sketch poetry in design sponge amongst the average everyday design.
absolutely breathtaking!
Gorgeous drawings, organic and real, I love getting to peek inside an artist’s sketchbook, it is like a glimpse into their brilliant mind.
thanks everyone
@Shandell often times my sketchbook pages don’t start on a blank sheet. being a clothesline user at home, sometimes a clothespin or two makes it in.
lovely sketches!
Second Stop is my favorite recent addition to my neighborhood in East Williamsburg. I love the cafe (and their donut-muffins) and these sketches – thanks for sharing.
Major scoop for design*sponge: Alex Eben Meyer’s guest posts. I’ll be watching for them in the mornings. I bet lots of others will be, too.
lovely illustrations. i miss living in brooklyn!
