The designers have put coffee making front and centre with an eye-catching coffee counter at the heart of the space with seating lining the walls on either side. Featuring a sleek, aerodynamic design, the futuristic coffee counter makes for a bold statement amid the sumptuous wood and leather banquettes, plaster stripped walls and geometric floor tiles. It’s not all show and no game though – the stainless-steel structure features a “coffee carousel”, a suspended conveyor belt that has been designed to mechanically streamline coffee delivery; it also makes for an interesting piece of theatrics to watch as you drink your coffee.

Echoing the metallic shine of the coffee counter, the stainless-steel façade draws customers in, while the custom-made metallic lighting system picks up the counter’s retro-mechanical aesthetic with numerous pendants adding retro vibes. Metal finishes can also be found in the minimalist-designed chairs and tables whose simple geometric forms complement the mid-century-inspired banquette seating. Finally, velvet curtains and leather upholstery in blue hues, a nod to The Espressonist’s brand identity, add a touch of colour to the otherwise achromatic interior.
