The 6 Degrees Café in Indonesia is conceptualised around the popular theory that every person on earth is connected by no more than six other individuals. Architecture and design consultants OOZN Design had this sociality to toy with and work into a design brief that called for a comfortable and memorable experience.
The coffee
shop in the Mall @ Alam Sutera is immediately noticeable by its use of vertical wooden panels, like stretching stalactites on the main wall and ceiling.
“We created an
undulating skin of timber slats, equally spaced apart at 150mm intervals, which
covers the entire wall and ceiling to break the monotony of spatial heights,”
explain the designers.
“Varying depth
of the fins not only creates a strong visual impact, they also hide the ceiling
equipment and improve the acoustics inside the cafe.”
Low-hanging
ceiling pendants and recessed floor lights cast a soft scale of shadows between
the wooden panels, and with similar colours used for the concrete screed floor
and the counter’s black tile mosaic, the full spectrum is not unlike the warm shades of coffee on sale.
The cavernous
design suits the café atmosphere and purpose: where groups of friends or
individuals can retreat for a more private experience.
Wooden furniture is really nice. My pleasure to have read your blog. This is a worth reading article, your insights are impressive.
