Design Features

The project area is about 500 square meters, and it was designed in the form of a group of barns,

with a modern appearance and covered with metal sheets resembling wood.

The complex is divided into three main sheds that share the same architectural language,

while arched openings extend upwards.

The “Take a Breath Cafe” provides spaces for a new restaurant or café,

whose design was inspired by the traditional shape of a barn made of wood.

The complex’s main buildings, such as the cafe, restaurant and kitchen,

provide several different functions.

with an area of ​​approximately 500 square meters of the total built-up area.

It is perpendicularly designed oriented towards the kitchen and café, which fits in with the other two parallel main buildings connected by a roofed corridor.

The design is divided into three parts from front to back, the parking area, the functional area, and the backyard area.

Design Materials The architects used a wood-like metal sheet as the primary material to cover all the facades along the roof.

While the arc-shaped openings provide a bold, monolithic look from the surrounding context.

The team of engineers created different sizes of voids, in the shape of an arc, located precisely at random.

For example, voids are created in the corner of the central kitchen, which tend to show the movement of the chefs to the new guest.

To the rear of the main dining area, another café void has been created to provide a view of the backyard behind.
