Archt. Malinda Liyanage the designer of Grand Coffee Lounge showcased in LMD LIVING Magazine in 2018 February Version.
Thc client’s primary requirement was to transform the existing physical space of an ordinary pastry shop into a high end coffee lounge. In order to transform customer perceptions, an element of sophistication was needed to turn the lounge into a welcoming place. To this end the ground floor was designed to open up to visitors without any constrictions. Contrary to the ‘openness’ of the entrance. Its interior has been designed to create privacy and comfort. And the shop’s architectural design also complements the intended concept of a hideaway.
The coffee shop’s ambience entices customers to relax for longer. For this purpose a space has been allocated with a common lounge and private areas. As well as a TV and meeting room. In contrast to the entrance, the interior is designed wich seclusion in mind. Along with its theme of colours to complement the ambience wooden partitions and the interior design express a refined fusion. While the internal staircase represents an additional clement to suit the client’s needs. The Grand Coffee Lounge in LMD Magazine was showcased due to these reasons.
