COCOBEAN

A project involving the transformation of a store into a cafe in Beşiktaş, a district with high pedestrian traffic and shopping density. The request was for a concept design that could evoke the tropical environment where coffee beans are grown.
In the concept work, brown colors and suitable textures were selected to allow patrons to enjoy the nuances of coffee tones. The venue was designed in an industrial style, paying attention to colors and shades that would evoke tropical associations while also enhancing the coffee experience. By creating spaces within the space, environments suitable for individual or group work were formed, thereby stimulating customers’ sense of discovery.
The existing space, composed of interconnected reinforced concrete buildings and voids, was reinterpreted, and mezzanines and terraces were added using steel construction.
It was designed as an atmosphere isolated from the dynamic and complex hustle of Beşiktaş. And after its opening, it quickly turned into a pleasant and unique venue suitable for working, resting, and socializing.
