Ben Cafe
Studio Boscardin.Corsi strives for balanced aesthetics and a connected environment in the realization of Ben Cafe, a coffee shop serving patrons in Curitiba, Brazil.
The old property, with 110.00m², worn over time, required a complete renovation. To meet the new use, a redesign of the room layout was required, with the creation of a more intimate service area, main salon and reserved lounge. The program has new support for kitchen, bathrooms and storage. The integration, in an unusual proposal that strives for functional organization with balanced aesthetics, connects the environments and allows moments of permanence to happen at the coffee shop.
The original, organic and curvy plant determined that the furniture should blend with the space, so that it was also shaped sinuously. In carpentry, the benches surround the walls and gain lightness and warmth with the woody tone. Dining benches are by the windows to enjoy the natural light and look square in front of the building.
