The coffee shop is located in the Athens and has an area of 300m2. The concept was to create a chilled environment that gives the impression of being in a garden. For this reason green walls was installed in two semi-opened spaces. These spaces get sunlight from the openings in the roof and in summer months the metal shades protect from direct sunlight.
We used modern furniture such as lc2 sofas to create a retro feeling. The use of natural materials such as wood, cement and rusted metal combined with the concrete sculpture created from Gianni Aspras give an industrial style in the coffee shop. The building, an old industrial building got a bioclimatic shading system with perforated metal panels. Pictures of street art and graffiti decorate the walls.
