01
The brief
A small corner site with one great asset: a big window onto a street tree. We gave the window to customers with a long timber bench, turned the counter so the barista faces the room, and kept the queue clear of the door.

The key decision
- i.
Durable by default
Oiled hardwood that can be sanded back, a cement-based terrazzo counter top, and stools that stack for cleaning.
