Unique Properties: What distinguishes Innova Cafe from other cafes is the depth perception of the illuminated mirrors on the ceiling and walls and the wall paintings specially designed for the space on the walls. The main concept of the cafe is to have good music and reading areas accompanied by coffee.
Dimensions & Packaging: In order to preserve the perception of space, the seating areas on the right and left of the entrance were used for a long time. A working area with a high entrance was built in the section close to the middle parameter bar, and a wooden bookshelf was positioned opposite it. With accurate rotational displays of exchange locations, customers are asked to experience the space in a comfortable and calm manner.

Production Technology: To define the space, the existing dividing walls were removed and new walls were manufactured. Bar area positioning is placed at the back to gather customers into the right area. Produced using marble material, the bar has a cabinet and presentation area suitable for the design. The seating areas used at the entrance of the venue were chosen from fabric and wood materials. Convenience and comfort are prioritized in the general ambiance.
Design Challenge: When the design started, the most important detail was that people would enter a spacious and calm environment. In this process, this issue was used in the selection of materials and equipment preferences. The use of plants and wooden details in the area, as well as seating areas with fabric materials to ensure comfort, were considered.
Research: In the meeting we held with the company owners for the cafe shop design, we detailed the main subject of the design, based on the idea of a head that can be read as a book. We resorted to using murals, mirrors, wood and marble. We calculated the frequency of use of the cafe and realized that the floor material should be epoxy with a wood and concrete appearance, and we started our design with these notes.
Inspiration: We thought that cafes should also undergo transformation in these periods when our habits of going out change due to the pandemic conditions that we are trying to leave behind in the world and in Turkey, and this detail allowed us to create the outlines of the İnnova brand. We wanted to create a place where you can forget about the tiredness and other things experienced during the day with green, brown and gray tones.
Project Duration: Istanbul / Sancaktepe design started in October 2023. It was held in Istanbul on February 18, 2024.
Operation Flow: 3 wave coffee shop with innovative structure. Good coffee, good music and a nice venue.
