Unique Properties: Having white as its main tone and in the simple and country style, mumi cafe, near the Dai-An Station, is stands out from the old apartment because of its unique romantic exotic style.

Production Technology: The door of the cafe has big glass window covered with ironed-like arc frame to give the simple and unique window view. The English brand name matched with the door perfectly and gives a warm exotic retro appearance. As enter the cafe, the light brown carpet and long wood bench on the greeting arriving warm up the cafe. As for the gate shelter, other than the functional consideration for the Southeast climate, it develops the brightness and 3D aesthetic feeling by the difference of light and dark white color in the outdoor and indoor of the cafe.
Design Challenge: Brings the 100% Korean cafe decoration into Taiwan is not easy. The construction and materials alone will need to put the maintenance and rust into the consideration due to the hot humid climate in Taiwan. That is why we not only cannot use the steel door as the cafe does in Korea but unable to custom-made. After due discussion, in order to save the budget of the owner, give the long-lasting protection for the customers and help the facade of cafe to fight against the erosion of the sun-scorched and rain-drenched, even the cracked deformation, we decide to make the door in complex processes such like wood-made modeling with the cement board, waterproof primer, UGL paste filler, anti-UV, waterproof Transparent protective film, etc.
Research: The white color is extended to the interior of whole cafe. The bright and beautiful light highlights the bar and seating area. A cabinet cleverly places in the deformed corner. The round-shape arch adds the finishing touch to the cafe and smoothens out our vision. The fireplace and window seat, the favorite place of the owner, is the popular photo spot for the customers. As for the traffic line safety, the wood handrail for stairs has the glass covered to protect the children and customers. The ceiling lamps and rattan plaited chairs create the Korean drama-like space and bring the retro, energetic, cute atmosphere into the cafe.
Inspiration: To create the 100% Korean cafe, he/she pays attention to from the space style, material and color tone to the tableware and accessories and even brings them to Taiwan from Korea and intends to give the customers the typical Korean vision and taste.
Project Duration: Taipei, Taiwan
January to April 2019
Operation Flow: As for the traffic line safety, the wood handrail for stairs has the glass covered to protect the children and customers. The ceiling lamps and rattan plaited chairs create the Korean drama-like space and bring the retro, energetic, cute atmosphere into the cafe.
