Cafe la Miell by Suppose Design Office


Suppose Design Office designed the Cafe la Miell in the city of Niihama, Japan.


.
Located in Niihama in Ehime, Japan, the Café la Miell lacked the space needed to accommodate the number of daily customers.  To combat this shortcoming, the client wished to open a new café across the street that would be able to hold 80 customers.  To create the new Café la Miell, Suppose Design Office  utilized the one meter drop of the site so that instead of having a standard two story café, as the client requested, the café would become a split level space with one floor at the building's base level, and one at street level.

Since the café needed parking, the wall facing the cars is completely opaque, yet, as customers turn the corner, the café's dominant concrete components part to allow light to flood into the seating area.  From the inside, the dialogue between the heavy concrete and the open glass creates a pleasant setting to enjoy a coffee.
