Starbucks Japan just released a new beverage called "Lemon Green tea Frappuccino" for this summer.
This is an Exhibition will be introduced to a wide variety of letter expressions that exist in the range of letter arts from Belgium and Japan held in Yokohama.

I found that I like this kind of art very much because it has a strong relation with typography.
If you are interested in this exhibition, visit here.
