Modernized Rustic Cafes

This Cafe Space Combines Contemporary Elements with Rustic Decor

This cafe space was designed by 'Triad China' for the 'Hunter Gatherer' stores in Shanghai.

Despite what its name suggests, customers at this restaurant will not have to kill their food, or even search for it. Instead, the unusually named restaurant provides customers with a dining experience that combines contemporary aesthetics with ones that are more natural. The resulting cafe space is partially modern with stainless steel appliances and white tiled walls that reveal playful graphics of food -- while the rest is decorated with wood and walls made up of lava stone or textured wood. The most eye-catching feature of the space is the lighting setup, which is made up of hanging globe-shaped bulbs that are surrounded by wooden crates.

This cafe/restaurant design works to create a diverse atmosphere for its customers.
