Art is found in almost everything. It can be found in ordinary objects, random junk and yes, even in coffee stains. German designer Stefan Kuhnigk turns random coffee spillages into tiny adorable monsters. It’s no secret that every piece of art has its own background story and Kuhnigk’s caffeine monsters are no different.
Back in 2011, Kuhnigk was at the office when he accidentally spilled his coffee on some paper. Instead of throwing it away in the trash, he suddenly felt creative and decided to doodle on the spillage. He filled in some lines and shapes on the dried spillage and turned it into a cute, tiny monster. And that’s how it all started. He’s been making monster illustrations with coffee since then and he has now created over 500 caffeine monsters.

You know what they say, sometimes accident is the mother of invention. Now, Kuhnigk purposely spills his coffee on paper and waits for the spillage to dry until it’s safe to draw on it. Following the shape of the stains, he would add a head, eyes and teeth to draw each wacky character. His wonderful monster illustrations range from cute and innocent to mischievous. Furthermore, the fact that every drawing was a result of a random spillage only adds to its charm.

“I really enjoy every single one because I love creation and the determination or coincidence of the coffee hitting paper,” Kuhnigk reveals. “I try to see a monster, character, or figure in it and when I find something, I draw it.”
