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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caf-tondo) with mod colors and lighting.
