About Beans Design de Interiores de Cafeteria
Beans é uma cafeteria e restaurante em Ma On Shan, Hong Kong, que serve café, sobremesas e refeições leves. O interior ocupa 2.263 pés quadrados e não possui janelas, por isso o projeto assume a forma de uma caverna de cristal. Superfícies reflexivas e iluminação quente iluminam o espaço e reduzem a sensação de enclausuramento. Uma superfície ondulante de aço inoxidável forma um lago próximo ao teto da entrada, e as rochas estreitas são produzidas por impressão tridimensional. Uma árvore ergue-se no centro e cresce em direção à luz. O balcão de sobremesas está posicionado perto da entrada para facilitar os pedidos.
