Von der hinteren Coverseite

The concept of the caf?, which began as somewhere to have a drink and socialize, has suffered a transformation with the arrival of digital communication. By adding the prefix "cyber" or "Internet" this type of establishment differs from the traditional caf? by offering internet connection at an hourly rate. The snacks and drinks are now a less important aspect of the business. Today the cybercaf? is considered a symbol of a world interconnected to real time, an internalization of digital technology, principally in Europe, America and Asia. This collection presents the most esthetic aspects of all those cybercaf?s and their "surfing" interiors, which have survived the golden age of these establishments. It also gives examples of the wide range of typologies starting with the traditional cybercaf?, and the subsequent inclusion of cyber lounges, hotel lounges, and educational centers with e-learning methods.
