Located in Bangkok, the Hands & Heart Cafe is situated on the second floor of the current Freitag pop-up shop. The cafe serves a specially curated blend of coffee beans from four countries and aims to highlight a material that both the Freitag and Hands & Heart Cafe have in common: aluminum.
Designed by party/space/design, the Hands & Heart Cafe is a stunning whiteout space featuring a monolithic grey slab of a counter, upon which sit the various appliances, all of which match the greyscale tones of the room. The room is lit by an aluminum light box that hangs suspended from ceiling, while the all the tables and chairs are also made of the material.
