Starbucks – The Coffee Belt

Located inside the Starbucks at Disney Springs West Side in Orlando, Florida, this representation of the coffee belt is rich in texture and laden with meaning.

The coffee belt – the geographic region where coffee beans are grown – was hand-sculpted to create a bas-relief piece lush with vegetation, celebrating the tasting notes of each coffee-growing region. Hidden among the vegetation, viewers will find sculpted hands showing the steps of coffee harvesting, giving a nod towards the farmers that care for this valuable crop, and acknowledging the importance of sustainable agriculture.
