While working on one of the coffee houses in the Coffeemania chain, we came up with a concept inspired by the sculptor's workshop.
The cafe space can be accessed directly from the street, and we decided to continue the theme of open urban space here. The tiles on the floor continue the paving stones of the street. Simple wooden benches and potted plants accentuate the association. And the combination of natural materials and textured natural forms help to create an atmosphere of warmth and cosiness.
We wanted to create an open and neat space filled with slender tall sculptures. Some of them are already completed, and some are not finished and are still waiting for the touch of the craftsman. Around the place, there are also blanks and stone blocks for the work to begin.
Many flowing lines have been used in the interior - sofa cushions, door handles, and plant cushions. But the concrete strip on the floor has become the main element. Like a signature sculpture, it permeates the entire space, bringing it together and creating a sense of wholeness.
