The Fakultat is a new bar in Odessa, which during the day works as a cafe. The premises of the former pharmacy, which is located in the educational district of Odessa, were reequipped for a new space, which could be transformed into various cultural events. The cafe is divided into 3 zones: a bar with a high landing, a low landing area with a terrace podium, as well as a shop area for records and books. In the evening, the cafe turns into a bar with the possibility of holding parties with DJs. The color spectrum of the project is made in bright colors, the flooring remains from previous owners of the premises.
The ArchiWorkshop foundation building was built on Yeonhui-ro, which is parallel to Ansan in Seoul. Most of the area is made up of type-1 residential districts, making it a quiet and comfortable residential area. With the recent acceleration in development of the Yeonnam-dong area, movements are also taking place in Yeonhui-dong is to reflect neighborhood-like atmospheres. Places made of neighborhood shops, rather than franchises, such as handicraft shops, craft coffee shops, craft beer shops, and Saruga markets (a local market brand) are creating Yeonhui-dong’s culture of high quality and originality. Here, where such pleasant routines take place, we decided to open the new life of ArchiWorkshop. ArchiWorkshop was founded in 2013 in a corner place of Bangbae-dong. It was a space of about 15 pyeong (approx. 49.6m2) located on the first floor, with three open sides. This was an attempt to openly show the studio of an architect. The ArchiWorkshop, located in Yeonhui-dong, is a space where the architects create everyday architecture. It is also a shared space where diverse cultural activities take place. Here, classical concerts are held regularly four times a year, and architectural works by ArchiWorkshop are displayed for the public.
De-Tox is a distinguished Greek coffee chain store with several spots along Greece. Lab4 architects undertook the design of this 98 sq.m store in Trikala, following the basic brand forms, bringing an evolution to the whole design identity though. Focusing on the main brand motto (the angle café), the architects got inspiration from the primitive shape of the “angle”, creating a series of constructions, patterns and formations. A laser cut metal hanging construction prevails in the seating area through its dynamic form, giving a sense of motion in the space. Triangle metal flower pots intensify this dynamic sense. On the opposite side, oak veneered mdf panels in combination with stone and cement plaster textures create a sense of calmness and coziness while a vertical garden wall completes the overall hospitable space result.
Shenzhen has been growing rapidly since being named a ‘special economic zone’ in 1980. High-rise structures have transformed the city’s skyline as its population has grown to over 12 million. Located in the city’s eastern Longgang district, the Cultural Centre contributes a rich and varied cultural programme housed in an iconic urban connector.
With twice the surface area, the coffee shop has been completely renovated, giving it a fresh, welcoming and comfortable new atmosphere.
A bright colour palette distinguishes the new decor. The checked wallpaper recalls school exercise books, the stepped seating and the screens modulate the space over which the lightweight and graphic lamps glide. The bar is tiled with coloured joints.
Particular attention has been given to the research of the materials: marble chip for the tables, brass for the pendant lamps, the fabrics for the cushions made in Senegal by a women’s cooperative. On the ceiling wood fibre panels for soundproofing.
There is a town that flourished over 150 years ago, The town’s name is Sawara.(Chiba,Japan) The area is now decided on a preservation district of traditional wooden buildings. the mission is to remodel the old reinforced concrete futon store in that area into a cafe.
This building was sufficiently old as a building of RC (nearly 50 years old), but I heard that there was a strange impression compared with the surrounding wooden building.
The market place, besides the city hall and the church, has always been the most important part of the center of the 4th district. However, from the 1970s on, the introverted late-modern market buildings and their service area occupied the public space of St. Stephen Square. The purpose of the current transformation is to give this space back to pedestrians and events by the forthcoming demolition of obsolete buildings, while the market is renewed within up-to-date frames.

Foolscap Studio was tasked with creating a space that Canberra’s inner-north would value as a genuinely unique hospitality experience – a place to call their own, without journeying into town. The team behind ONA Coffee and The Cupping Room developed a brief that strongly resonated with their own offerings’ principles: confident and specialist delivery of quality products, happy experimentation delivered with flair, remaining approachable and humble. The space warmly and easily transitions from day into night, encouraging guests to linger and treat Highroad as a home away from home.
