[ASKA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experience-center-1) design firm has transformed a restaurant space into an inviting and aesthetically pronounced vegan breakfast joint. The restaurant is called [Cafe Banacado](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caf-goldie) and is an intimate 70-square-foot cafe. Lead designer Polina Sandström drew inspiration primarily from Wes [Anderson's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-passiv) films and the Cuban aesthetic.

The color palette chosen for the restaurant was warm hues of yellow, pink, and cream - deliberately chosen to make space feel like a cafe in a Southern, sun-filled climate. The cafe is completed with built-in benches, checkered floors, and mirrors which draws on a Cuban sensibility. It is further decorated with vintage polaroid pictures to evoke a sense of nostalgia and was designed using a one-point perspective that draws on Wes Anderson's symmetrical aesthetic.

Cafe Banacado serves plant-based breakfast food all day long.
