The COFFEE & cafe located in Kiev, Ukraine features a modern and open-concept interior that references the shop's food and beverage in the space's overall design including a series of wall lamps that resemble flakey croissants. The whimsical aesthetic to the eatery's design conveys an inviting and warm atmosphere that surrounds the consumer in visual references of the products the establishment serves.
Architectural firm YUDIN Design put together the COFFEE & space that blends an array of contemporary wooden pieces with mod colors and lighting. The space features multi-colored glass panels that divide up the space into sit down areas and bars, without breaking up the flow of the open concept. In addition, the walls are made with thin wooden panels that make up cylinder wall lamps that are modelled after croissant pastries.
