Production Technology: The project was realized through a fast track construction process with on site coordination and custom fabrication. Wood paneling, service counters, shelving systems and metal details were produced off site and assembled on location. Durable ceramic flooring and painted finishes were selected for intensive daily use. Lighting includes recessed spots, linear LED strips and integrated fixtures. A lower floor kitchen and service areas were planned to support efficient food preparation and staff circulation.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was transforming a long established local cafe into a new bakery concept with a different spatial identity and atmosphere, while still welcoming existing customers. The design needed to create a fresh experience without losing the familiarity of the location. Another key constraint was time, as the commercial space required a fast turnaround. Design development, fabrication and construction were completed within a tight schedule to enable early reopening.
Research: Practice based design research. The objective was to transform an existing cafe into a bakery with efficient service flow and a renewed spatial identity. Site analysis, user observation and layout studies guided the methodology. Data was gathered through measurements, circulation mapping and material testing. The process involved designers, craftsmen and the client. The result is a compact layout supporting fast service and short stays. The project shows how adaptive reuse can improve daily business performance and neighborhood engagement.
Inspiration: The inspiration for Alp Bakery came from the refined elegance of French patisseries and the warmth of European cafe culture. The design aimed to reinterpret this atmosphere within the dynamic context of Istanbul, blending traditional charm with contemporary sensibilities. Deep blue facades, oak wood finishes, and brass details were chosen to reflect both authenticity and modern sophistication, creating a space where artisanal flavors meet refined hospitality.
Project Duration: The project started in February 2023 in Gokturk, Istanbul and was completed in March 2023. The space previously operated as an industrial style book cafe with a different layout. The transformation included a one month design development phase followed by one month of construction and on site implementation.
Operation Flow: Visitors enter from the street into a compact seating area that connects directly to the service counter. The layout allows quick takeaway orders while also supporting short and long stays. Seating along the windows and walls keeps circulation clear during busy hours. Staff movement is supported by a lower floor kitchen and storage area, allowing efficient preparation and service without interrupting the customer experience. The space encourages both quick visits and relaxed use.
