CONFIDENTIAL COFFEE COMPANY - HQ CAFES
The goal was to revamp this Confidential Coffee Company’s Headquarters' coffee experience, creating inclusive spaces where employees could choose how and where they work while fostering a sense of community over coffee. Inspired by the Coffee Belt, the design unified the cafes across six different floors, enhancing the way-finding experience. It subtly paid homage to coffee-growing regions through art and furnishings. Central to the design were state-of-the-art coffee bars with communal islands for tastings, surrounded by versatile workspaces.
