Coffee shop design appreciation: factory transformation of the Dutch Hague paint factory transformed into a coffee bar

Amsterdam architecture studio Bureau Fraai has transformed a pre-paint factory in the Hague into a unique coffee bar, restaurant and business center. The whole space is mainly made of steel, including the Capriole logo, and the entrance rolls of toilets and wardrobes are also made entirely of steel. In addition, in sharp contrast to the black and white interior, the designer introduced oak and brass into the design of all tables and cabinets. Among them, the sky chandelier and the base that provides the company's future high-end coffee machine are also customized by Bureau Fraai.

The original small window of the factory is replaced by a 5-meter-high steel window frame, the doors and windows are opened to the interior of the terrace, and there is a wharf in front of the coffee shop. The main purpose of the cafe design is to create a comprehensive experience in all aspects of coffee production and consumption. Although there are coffee shops, coffee bars and restaurants on the ground floor, there are barista training centers, showrooms, offices and conference rooms in Capriole Cafe on the first floor.
