Coffee and creativity: why creatives worldwide work in cafés like Carrera
Writers, designers, musicians, entrepreneurs: they all work in cafés. Why? Science has answers. And Carrera Café at Petit-Champlain is the perfect example.
The science behind the creative café
A study published in the Journal of Consumer Research showed that moderate ambient noise in a café (about 70 decibels) significantly improves creative thinking compared to complete silence or loud noise. This phenomenon, called "stochastic resonance," is related to how our brain processes information in the presence of background noise.
In other words: the perfect café for creating exists. And it looks a lot like Carrera Café.
