Unique Properties: In order to separate the cafe from the old building weak wall structure, we created a separate steel structure works as an envelope finished with oak wood in a herringbone pattern with brass dividers, echoed by brass spacers in the polished terrazzo floor. To maximize the 30 square metre space, rather than tables and chairs, we provided a row of upholstered benches along one wall accompanied by small, lightweight tables that can be easily moved to suit patrons’ needs.
Dimensions & Packaging: 30 square metre space, Marble surfaces and polished brass inserts meld with industrial elements, oak wood in a herringbone pattern with brass dividers, echoed by brass spacers in the polished terrazzo floor.
