[I] Some of the most successful people in history have done their best work in coffee shops – whether they’re painters, singer – songwriters, philosophers or writers, people across nations and centuries have tapped into their maximum potential while working away at a table in a café. [II] And this is not a coincidence at all: research shows that there is a combination of factors that make coffee shops the ideal working environments. [III] Some of us stick in our earbuds as soon as we sit down to work in a public setting to block any sound. [IV] But scientists have known for years that background noise, which is obviously common in cafés, can benefit our creative thinking. A 2012 study showed that a low – to – moderate level of ambient noise in a place can actually boost your creative output. Another study from 2019 also found proof of what is called “stochastic resonance”. Originally observed in animals, this is the phenomenon in which just the right amount of ambient noise benefits our senses, improving things like our ability to make decisions. Some have even dubbed it “the coffee shop effect”. There’s also the fact that in a coffee shop, we’re surrounded by people who’ve come to do the same thing as us, which acts as a motivator. A 2016 study backed up this idea when researchers asked participants sitting next to each other in front of a computer to do a task on the same screen. The study showed that “simply performing a task next to a person who exerts a lot of effort in a task will make you do the same”. “It’s analogous to going to the gym for a workout,” says Sunkee Lee, assistant professor at Carnegie Mellon
