Cafe Javasti

After we finished the design of their location in Wedgwood, Cafe Javasti asked us to renovate their smaller space in the Maple Leaf neighborhood of Seattle.

Since the existing lighting was poor, we came up with a diagonal grid of conduit and standard socket light fixtures covering the entire ceiling in the space. Over the coffee bar, this grid sprouts pendant task lights from Schoolhouse Electric.

Our other interventions were a new exterior bench along the sidewalk, a white epoxy countertop at the coffee bar, and randomized graphic elements in a new tile backsplash and a wood screen below the espresso machine.
