Bru: Coffee & Gelato Design Coffee shop

Professional Project (2024) Architect Site area: 130 sqm(approx.)

Role• Assisted principal Architect in developing interior design and drawings • participation in the client meeting and developed the project brief and conceptual design before starting the final execution CONTEXT Bru, a vibrant coffee and gelato cafe, was born from the transformation of a historic building in Cardiff’s city center. The design concept centers around the tagline “Sip. Bite. Repeat.” and the brand’s signature orange hue. The heart of the cafe is a bespoke teal counter, a multifunctional element that serves as a focal point and a testament to the cafe’s artisanal approach.

DESIGN ELEMENT Counter: The custom teal counter is the centerpiece, embodying the brand’s vibrant personality. Its shape is echoed by an overhead expanded metal mesh structure finished in a bold orange, reinforcing the brand’s visual language.

Sustainability: The counter is embraced by vertical timber slats on the backboard, introducing a natural, sustainable element that complements the organic coffee offerings.

Functionality: The back counter area is thoughtfully designed to maximize efficiency and showcase the cafe’s diverse menu. A well-organized sequence of waffle makers, blenders, coffee machines, grinders, and other equipment ensures a smooth workflow.

The Brew Cafe project is a harmonious blend of heritage and modernity. The design successfully balances the brand’s playful identity with the building’s historical character, resulting in a unique and inviting space that encourages customers to “See. Sip. Repeat.”

MASTER BED ROOM The master bedroom of the triplex house featured a combination of customized composite furniture that all together stitched the bed, bedside table and open shelves, dressing cabinets and doors.

A single architectural design language was followed in every space to create an ambient environment. The grand opening of the room is protected by perforated furniture treatment to enhance the natural lighting provision. The buildings are stacked on a hilly natural site.

Interior material such as concrete, wood, and clear glass was used to connect the interior space to the building as well as to the context.
