This on-campus coffee shop features varied seating options, from laid back lounge to flexible bar seating. Paper lampshades of different sizes offer both visual interest and ambient lighting, as well as an illusion of lower ceiling height. Warm hues in both wood and upholstery helps to soften the hard materials of the existing space. For this project we repurposed parts of an old corian bench top for the tops of coffee tables.
