I started to work in an ad agency far away in Switzerland in the early 00’s. Some of their earlier work was in this style and all the Graphis and Étapes Graphique magazines in the studio were filled with “global village coffeehouse” showcases. I had never heard of the term until today but it’s a fitting name.
If I recall many cliparts for MS Word in the 90’s were in that style as well.
Maybe it was more a west coast thing?
