The coffee shop to evade the caffeine-curse of gentrification

Café ODYSSEY is a creative intervention utilising coffee, storytelling and wayfinding to encourage social cohesion by highlighting existing cultural narratives within the context of urban regeneration. Influenced by the argument that the coffee shop has become a barometer of degree of gentrification, Café ODYSSEY takes the form of a pop-up café highlighting localness and celebrating diversity in Peckham, southeast London, during its current period of transition.
